YOUNGSTOWN A downtown Youngstown restaurant that recently relocated to Austintown has temporarily closed once again as the owners decide whether or not to move back downtown.

Prima Cucina co-owner Josh Santangelo tells 21 News he is not only paying for the Austintown location, but also still paying the lease for the building that housed its previous location on West Federal Street.

Santangelo tells 21 News the restaurant is currently closed as he weighs his options to either keep the restaurant where it is now or move back to downtown Youngstown.

 

Santangelo says he's considering moving back downtown because things are "looking up" there now that the road construction has dissipated and that they are already paying for the building.

No official time frame was given for when the restaurant will reopen, but Santangelo says he expects to come to a decision within the next few weeks.
