Western Avenue Restaurant News

We’re a little late on some of these, but here the eateries that have opened and closed on Western Avenue.

Coming soon

Two soon-to-be new kids on the block: Saladish and a second Pavich’s Pizza.

Truselas is serving Italian and California cuisine in the Albertson’s shopping center, across from Cold Stone Creamery where an Asian restaurant used to be. A story appears on page 26 of the October issue of San Pedro Today.

Sirinat Thai is packing in the crowds at peak times. Read a review on the second page of this Random Lengths section. Located on 25th Street in the shopping center with Chicago for Ribs and Hollywood Video.

Aloha Ice Cream and Coffee has closed in the same shopping center.

Amalfitano Bakery, by the owners of the former Ramona Bakery on Pacific Avenue, is expected to open in January.

A second location of Pavich’s Pizza will open in early 2010 in the former Pizza Hut on Western and Summerland Avenues.

Saladish is expected to open in the Terraces in February. The restaurant will be comparable to a Souplantation, serving organic salads plus soups and wraps in a more intimate setting. This will be the first U.S. location of the Korean chain, which plans to open five other cafes in the L.A. area.

Needless to say, P’sketti Spaghetti House has closed.
