There have been a lot of rumors floating around about one of the SouthCoast's most popular restaurants. We received news this week that one of those rumors is actually true. Mario Ribeiro, the owner of The Pasta House in Fairhaven, reached out to Fun 107 to tell us he has some big news.

“We’re rebranding for the future,” Ribeiro confirmed. Starting on Saturday, Oct. 1, The Pasta House will be transforming into BOCCA. Ribeiro did not personally name or create The Pasta House himself. The Raikonen family created and operated The Pasta House successfully for 20 years before Ribeiro acquired the business in 2001.
