Tuscan Brands to open a new restaurant in spring in Newburyport, Mass.
Newburyport, MA According to Newburyport Development, Tuscan Brands will open a new restaurant concept at 54 Merrimac St. in downtown in the spring.
Tuscan Brands new concept will feature locally sourced seafood, a raw bar, Tuscan Brand’s famous scratch made pasta, as well as house made artisan breads, Neapolitan style pizzas, house made desserts, gelato and more.
The restaurant’s waterfront location overlooking the Merrimack River has harbor views and boasts outdoor seating for warm weather, al fresco dining. Featuring a total interior transformation, the new restaurant will be an exciting addition to the restaurant scene in town.
“We are delighted to announce the addition of Tuscan Brands new concept to Newburyport’s vibrant culinary community,” said Rebekah Macchia, marketing director of Newburyport Development. “The opening in Newburyport is extremely exciting news for local residents and visitors alike.”
“We can’t wait to bring Tuscan Brands to another part of the Merrimack Valley in the spring of 2020. This restaurant will be a new concept for us, curated just for Newburyport. It’s going to be such a special destination, considering its incredible waterfront location at the end of the Merrimac St. boardwalk and its ocean-inspired interior design. Given Tuscan’s DNA of ‘artisan Italian cuisine’ and the surroundings of our newest restaurant, our focus will be coastal Italian creations,” said Joe Faro, CEO and “Chief Food Taster” of Tuscan Brands.
