"Previously, I reported that Easton's two-year-old Bar Bacetto in nearby Waitsburg closed reportedly due to financial challenges. Bar Bacetto had received national acclaim — it landed on the New York Times's 2023 list of top 50 restaurants in the U.S. and was a finalist in the James Beard Awards' national Best New Restaurant category in 2024, though it didn't win the prize in June." - Brenna Houck
