"What started seven years ago as a neighborhood market and bar in downtown’s Capitol Park has expanded its footprint: Eatóri Market is reopening March 28 after a months-long closure, having doubled its capacity by taking over the space next door formerly occupied by the Ten Nail Bar. Chef Richard Strong will expand the menu beyond mezze offerings like mussels, fiery shrimp, and fried calamari steak to include heartier entrees such as a grilled half rack of lamb served with a blueberry thyme compote and babaganoush and a pistachio-encrusted sea bass. General manager Chris Southern is charged with improving the wine and beverage program, weekend brunch service is expected to begin in the near future, and the popular happy hour (3 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily) is returning. Eatori closed for six months in 2023 to renovate 1,700 square feet, bringing its total footprint to 4,200 square feet and now accommodating indoor seating for 72, in addition to a 15-seat bar and a 45-person patio; the adjoining marketplace continues to carry basic grocery staples and a limited variety of meats, produce, and wines. Dinner service runs 4 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 5 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, and 5 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, and the market originally opened on the ground floor of the Malcomson Building in 2017 as one of the first businesses in the refreshed Capitol Park." - Serena Maria Daniels
