Marconi Mercato (2030 Marconi)—from partners Joe Smugala, Carlos Hernandez, and Brian McBride—is now open in the original Amighetti’s space. The trio is excited to bring to life a mixed-use market and restaurant concept, something they feel will fill a void in the neighborhood that they've called home for several years.
(Smugala and Hernandez are also involved in several other restaurants on or near the Hill: they own Collina Eatery, El Milagro Azteca, and GastroPIT-STL, and Smugala's a partner at Carnivore on the Hill, along with Mike Lutker.)
