Battuto Italian Kitchen, New Restaurant From Former KVIL Team “Gene & Julie,” Opens Thursday, March 14


If you’ve been hankering for a Gene & Julie Gates fix, circle Thursday, March 14 on your dining calendar. The popular former KVIL Drive Time/real life couple have jumped into the restaurant business with Battuto Italian Kitchen, their first foray into restaurant ownership.

Though the menu hasn’t been finalized –“we’ll have it ready by the time we open on Thursday for dinner,” says an insider — the casual Italian spot is probably worth a shot.

Dinner begins at 6 pm on Thursday. Battuto Italian Kitchen will serve lunch and dinner beginning on Friday.
