New site, new name for Pizza Azzurro
Pizza Azzurro shut its doors Friday night — but only at its old location on Second Street. The favorite Napa dining spot known for its authentic, thin crust pizzas and other specialties, is moving to a new, larger space in the new Wiseman “Main Street West” Building, at 1260 Main St., on Napa’s emerging “restaurant row.” Its name is also changing just a little — it will become Azzurro Pizzeria & Enoteca.

Chef Bob Hurley and the staff of Hurley’s Restaurant welcome back guest chef Karen Crouse for a Mardi Gras dinner Feb. 5, 5-10 p.m. and reservations are required. The Fat Tuesday prix fixe menu is $65 (including wines) and consists of Oysters Bienville, crawfish cocktail, red beans with rice, jambalaya, beignets and New Orleans coffee. There will be plenty of Mardi Gras beads and doubloons.

There’s a kind of genius at work behind the menu at Solbar, although Chef Brandon Sharp won’t take all the credit for it.
