The long-dormant Kellys Brew Pub in Nob Hill will soon be showing signs of life with M’tucci’s readying to open their new location in the former brewery this month. “It’s gonna be full of life and energy and that was really our goal from the beginning was just to really bring something here that could be transformative for this area and build on what was already here,” said John Haas, M’tucci’s Restaurants’ managing partner.
M’tucci’s Bar Roma, at 3222 Central SE, opens Wednesday. Haas said the restaurant’s menu and its name was inspired by a company trip to Rome. During the trip, Haas and several employees got the chance to sample local foods for menu inspiration, which will feature classic Roman dishes like aglio e olio, a pasta made with olive oil and garlic, cacio e pepe ravioli, and dishes with octopus.
