Chef/owner Marco Pellegrini and his wife, Chef de Cuisine Sabrina Vallorinian have signed a long-term lease for Osteria Umbra, a 6,000-square-foot restaurant to be located at 197 Terry Road, Smithtown, just 500 yards south of Route 347, announced Paul Fetscher, president of Great American Brokerage.
Featuring a wood-fired grill and rotisserie, the restaurant will celebrate the cuisine of the couple’s hometown of Foligno, Umbria. Pellegrini previously make his mark on the Long Island culinary scene as chef at Caci on the North Fork.
This vision was completed with the design and contracting of Stephen and Diane Bragoli and Daniel Bragoli, co-owners. The location has undergone a substantial redecoration as it replaced the previous Smithtown Buffet.
