This modern take on a classic mom-and-pop Italian dining experience features a contemporary palette of terra cotta, cream, and blue. Dramatic color-blocking and a flexible layout creates a lively, dynamic 158-seat space that can easily accommodate private events.
Gufo’s location previously hosted a local favorite neighborhood restaurant and day cafe. RODE’s design relocated the entrance to a side approach, letting diners choose between a cafe-style space with espresso, coffee, a pizza oven, and overhead doors opening onto a three-season porch; or progressing into the main dining space, where we expanded the bar to triple its original size.
