Long time Grand Forks restaurant the Italian Moon is going to reopen. Owner Scott Purpur said the mainstay restaurant on South Washington Street will have its first day back on Friday, April 17, after having been closed for about a month.
The restaurant will be open from noon to 8 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. The Italian Moon will have a smaller menu than usual and will offer delivery and curbside pickup. Though he’s glad to be reopening, Purpur acknowledged there are a lot of challenges, and he knows he’s operating in uncharted waters. Still, like other businesses, he has bills to pay.
