Yea, I was there two days ago and I guess the plan changed! I liked their pizza :-) Hopefully something better arrives in its place.

That was quick,they weren't there to long.From what I have heard it was extremely difficult for them to open in the first place due to how strict WF is on opening a business.In my opinion the only thing that gets built quickly in WF is their posh new town offices.

It was explained to me that not only were they behind on the lease, but a mechanics lien was placed by the construction company who had built the interior. Plans are to possibly downsize the space and convert to a simple pizzeria were you can go to the counter and get your 2 slice lunch special for $4-$5 ...sit down for a few minutes and be on your way or order a few pies for take out. I would think with the new HS across the way it would be a hit with the teenagers in the afternoon. Let's hope because Rudino's just shut it's doors and it's disheartening to see all these vacant stores in these once bustling centers of our town.

Just wondering what the top choice for a replacement restaurant would be?
A few Ideas I have:
1. Family friendly Casual restaurant focusing on high quality ingredients, great presentations at an affordable price.
2. A better version of a Panera bread style Bakery / Restaurant
3. A Gastro pub in the Bar area serving small tapas plates. Possible Gourmet store / restaurant combination
4. Asian Noodle and Dumpling restaurant focusing on international noodles and dim sum
5. A great breakfast / Lunch Restaurant
Just a few ideas.....anyone want to weigh in?
I left out the obvious Pizza / Italian
