Selectmen Approve License for Italian Restaurant in Dedham Square

DEDHAM, MA — After a run as Isabella’s, a new restaurant is coming to the High Street property. Thursday night, the selectmen approved a liquor license transfer to Cafe Tremezzo.

Representatives for the restaurant said they hope to bring a concept similar to their restaurant in Wilmington called Tremezzo Ristorante.

Mauro Lucchesi said they are hoping to make the establishment a little more high end than their Wilmington location. No changes are bring done to the structure beyond some cosmetic clean up.

“The Dedham Square area offers a good opportunity and I think we can do quite well,” Lucchesi said.

Also part of the team is Rick Lowe who has 27 years of restaurant experience, including 15 with Outback Steakhouse. He told the board that his restaurants have a history of doing a lot in the community and look to do the same with their Dedham venture.

“Once we saw the opportunity, it really makes sense and we couldn’t be happier,” he said.

Cafe Tremezzo will be located at 566 High St. No word on a date for the grand opening.
