I ran into one of the owners of Dantes. She confirmed that their new store will take the place of Brite Ideas in Blackstone District. Finally we don't have to drive out to Legacy for arguably the best pizza in Omaha.

NICE! I love that place. Did she say when she planned for it to be open?

Having eaten at Nolis, and at Brick oven, not sure that Nolis is best, but it's certainly good. Agree completely that there are now too many restaurants in that area. Already too many bars.

No, it will be pretty stale by the time they reopen.

Ok, dad. I guess I walked into that one.

So anyway, will the current pizza recipes (or something similar) remain on the menu?

From the article.

“The restaurant will serve wood-fired Italian shared plates, including vegetables, whole fish, chicken and beef. The menu will rotate seasonally, and include new pizza selections. The only holdover from the previous restaurant’s menu will be the Margherita pizza.

Forno’s menu won’t include traditional “appetizers” and “entrées,” Strawhecker said. Rather, diners will choose a handful of items to share. Dishes will be delivered as they are ready.”

A new restaurant has opened here, but I can’t remember the name.

It’s called Lucky Tiger. I believe it’s the same people as IKa Ramen.
