Louie Vangel, a grandson of the late Charlie Gitto Sr. who ran his grandfather's famed Charlie Gitto’s Downtown restaurant for the last decade, is opening up an Italian restaurant under his own name that will carry on the family tradition.
Vangel has signed a lease for 5,618 square feet of restaurant space in the Bennett Hills Shopping Center at 10017 Manchester Road in Warson Woods, aiming to open Vangel’s Italian Restaurant by March 1. The space previously was occupied by J. Greene’s Irish Pub, which closed in June.
