Southland Savvy
Dino Anthony’s, a popular Italian restaurant, closed its doors this week at 20590 S. LaGrange Road in Frankfort after being open less than a year.
Fans of owner Dino Pavoni’s pizza can still get it at Simply Slices, 14280 S. Cicero Ave. in Crestwood, which remains open. Simply Slices offers pizza and sandwiches but none of the pasta dishes that Dino Anthony’s served.
Dino Anthony’s is the second restaurant to fail in that location. It was originally a Tore’s restaurant.
Once Upon A Child opens in Chicago Ridge
A Once Upon A Child resale shop opened late last year at 9990 S. Ridgeland Ave. in the Chicago Ridge Commons.
The store buys and sells "gently used" children's clothing, toys, baby equipment and furniture, as well as movies, books and other items for children.
