Crain’s reports that venerable Andersonville Italian restaurant La Donna will be shuttering in a month or so … only to reopen a handful of blocks north on the same street, near Rogers Park.
Owner Antonella Barbanente attributes the move to “a shortage of convenient parking and increased competition from a growing number of restaurants in the trendy neighborhood.” Which, um, reads to us as La Donna could no longer compete. Here’s hoping there’s a better reason for the move than just an inability to stay relevant, and that the restaurant thrives in its new home.
