Porcellino’s Craft Butcher will soon close and relocate from its Brookhaven Circle spot and fill that space with a new restaurant.

Porcellino’s will close on May 27 at its spot at 711 West Brookhaven Circle.

“We are going to disclose the location as soon as plans get finalized,” said Andy Ticer, who owns Porcellino’s with Michael Hudman. “It’s an opportunity we’re excited about. It made sense to where we want to take Porcellino’s in the future.

“City Block Salumeria, the butcher shop, will remain in the butcher shop space. We also have an exciting announcement as to what will go in the restaurant space. We will release that information in a couple of weeks.”
