Piada Italian Street Food is bringing its piadas, pastas and salads to Florida and its first location will be in the new Town Center Promenade. The 30-acre Promenade of restaurants, retail stores, hotels and apartments is slated for development along Town Center Parkway opposite the St. Johns Town Center.
Piada describes itself as an upscale fast-casual Italian eatery. Chris Doody, co-founder in 1992 of the Bravo Brio Restaurant Group Inc., created Piada in 2010, several years after leaving Bravo Brio. "He had the idea of bringing fast-casual to the Italian sector," said spokesman Matt Eisenacher.
