Coming soon…in 2010
A new location, a new dining experience.

Dear Friends,

Iovino’s Ristorante will be relocating in 2010. We are in the process of building another “small” kitchen and restaurant space directly behind the Renaissance in the building on the corner of Washington and 2nd Street. The restaurant will be located next to The Baguette (which will be moving over in the building), and Iovino’s Catering Cucina & Ristorante will occupy the middle of the building with our entrance on Washington Street.

The style of dining will bring something new to the Corvallis area and allow me to get back to creating menus for our patrons’ dining pleasure, in a small, intimate setting, with a comfort level of home. Basically, I want all of you to come to “my house” for dinner. Our patrons can view our weekly menu on-line, and it will be required to make a reservation for that evening’s dinner. We will start with one seating on the evenings that we are open, and if there is the demand we are hoping for, we will have two seatings a night. We will not be able to take walk-in business.

The new site will feature an open kitchen, with the dining room seating up to 30 guests. The restaurant will offer a private setting for groups under 30, and serve reservation-only dinners a couple evenings a week. If you are interested in receiving information on our opening date, weekly menus for the select evenings of dining, and our special event calendar.

Please send us your e-mail address so we can add it to our list. Our e-mail is: dine@iovinos.com.
If you are dining with us, we have forms that you can fill out with your e-mail and give it to your wait person.

I will also be offering monthly cooking classes, wine dinners with our local wine makers and a monthly community table dinner. Our Platter Menu and take-out pasta dishes will still be availalbe for pick-up if ordered within 48 hours, and of course, our full-service catering is always available. We have built up a great Friday lunch business and plan to open every Friday for lunch for walk-in customers. We are available Monday thru Friday to bring lunches to your place of business for groups of 20 or more (48 hour notice).

Iovino’s Catering and banquet business will not be interrupted during the process, which is the part of our business that has grown larger than the restaurant. The restaurant will continue operating in the Renaissance until February 14, 2010. We will still be here for Valentine’s Day. Make your reservations early.

Operating Hours until February 14, 2010.

Fridays 11:30 to 2:00 and 5:00 to 10:00 p.m.
Friday is the only day we are open for lunch.
Saturdays 5:00 to 10:00 p.m.
Sundays 5:00 to 9:00 p.m.
Mondays 5:00 to 9:00 p.m.
Mondays - All you can eat Spaghetti Nigh - served Family-Style.
Tuesday-Thursdays the restaurant and banquet room is available for private events.
Iovino’s will still be using the banquet room in The Renaissance to book events, and also the Top of the Elements Building now called The Vue and off-site full-service catering.

Booking: contact me at dine@iovinos.com. Or vist our website at www.iovinos.com.

It has been my pleasure to have you dine with us in the past, and I look forward to cooking for all of you in the future.

Best wishes and a very sincere thank you for your continued support over the years,

Regina Iovino
