Australian Restaurant Oz Eyeing August Opening in Clarendon

Eatery and bar will occupy Tagliatella space at 2950 Clarendon Blvd.

Clarendon will soon have a new restaurant and bar, according to a help wanted ad posted on craigslist for an executive chef and general manager.

The new restaurant is called Oz and will have an Australian influence, according to the ad: “Oz will feature casual dining and a lively bar reminiscent of Australia’s many watering holes.”

The new restaurant will be located at 2950 Clarendon Blvd., where the former La Tagliatella used to be. Look for Oz to open in mid- to late-August, the ad notes.
