SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (KEYT) – Pascucci, a staple Italian Restaurant in Santa Barbara, will soon have a new name and a new concept.
After 33 years, owner Laura Knight said Pascucci will bid “Ciao” to Santa Barbara.
She says the process of moving her liquor license from the lower State Street location to the new 1230 State Street location near the Granada Theatre is slow going.
The new owner of her old location has new plans for the building.
Now Knight plans to change the name of her business and cater to the Theatre District.
“We are going to be open for another month plus we are in the process of transferring our liquor license to this location, it has been a challenging year and we just made the decision around the holidays to try something new,” said Knight.”
Customers can still count on Pascucci’s on this Mother’s Day.
“We are opening this weekend on Mother’s Day and I’ll be baking homemade cookies and we will have chocolate covered strawberries for all of our guest to celebrate the mom’s that we love”
Then they hope to reopen and serve up items customers may want after going to the theatre.
