“It's about time,” Broadway Bistro posted. “Over 16 years of hard work, fun, and everything in between. We couldn't ask for a better outcome.”
The bistro's owner, Patrick Roney, is also co-owner of nearby Slow Rhode at 425 West Fountain Street.
Bisceglia, owner of Bacco Vino & Contorni, opened just days before the 2020 pandemic shutdown.
