Owner of 2 Brooklyn restaurants taking over the Lollo space on Avenue B

There are new operators for the restaurant space at 27 Avenue B between Second Street and Third Street.

Nico Dona (below) and two partners, William Garfield and Amanda Bender, are preparing to open an Italian restaurant called Maretta.
Dona, who is friends with the owners of the last tenant, Lollo Ristorante Pizzeria & Bar, plans a soft opening this weekend. 

Maretta will be an all-day cafe open daily. (They do have a liquor license, with a cocktail menu plus beer and wine.) There will be no Resy apps, as Dona prefers old-school walk-ins (or a phone reservation). There's a placeholder Instagram account here

Dona also owns Anything in Prospect Lefferts Gardens and Bacàn in Williamsburg.
