ORO Italian Street Food, a new dining concept offering authentic Italian street food, recently held an exclusive Friends & Family Night on June 15th, serving as a successful preview of what’s to come for this week’s grand opening.
- The restaurant has announced its official opening on Thursday, June 22nd, at City Food Hall in Destin Commons. The grand opening celebration will kick off with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 4pm followed by a two-hour public event until 6pm.
During the invite-only Friends & Family Night, guests were treated to a culinary experience. The event showcased a range of signature menu items meticulously crafted by the husband and wife duo, chefs Massimo and Elisabetta Tundo.
“We were thrilled to share the ORO experience with our friends, family, and esteemed guests during the Friends & Family Night,” said Elisabetta Tundo, Chef and Owner of ORO Italian Street Food. “Their overwhelming positive feedback and support have further fueled our passion for bringing the best of Italian street food to the Destin community.”
The pizza selection includes options like the spicy Calabrese and the rich Roma with fried artichokes. The Bianca features creamy Gorgonzola and potatoes, and the Rossa is packed with anchovies and capers. (There are more too!)
- Beyond pizza, the restaurant features sandwiches like the Cuoppo with crispy calamari and shrimp, and the Panuozzo, a mouthwatering Neapolitan sandwich.
