Latest Update on Amalfi Ristorante Italiano, Which Announced in April its Plans to Sell Building, Name, and Recipes After 45 Years in Montgomery County

Longtime MoCo restaurant Amalfi Ristorante Italiano at 12307 Wilkins Ave in Rockville announced plans back in April to relocate out of Montgomery County sometime in 2022. At the time the restaurant said that it would be putting up the Amalfi building, restaurant name, and recipes for sale.  In a social media post on Friday, the restaurant provided an update and stated this may be the last month the Amalfi family will own the restaurant and that they would be at the location at least through October.

“As we near October we may not know when our last day will be but we do know we will definitely be here through the entire month. So that means October will officially be known as the Month of Amalfi. Don’t miss out on what very well may be our last month, well at least for the Amalfi Family. As for the restaurant itself…. Stay Tuned 😉
Don’t forget to hop onto our website www.amalfirockville.com to make reservations. Last thing you want to do is miss out because we are fully booked. We look forward to seeing you all and always remember, “After you visit Amalfi, You May Never Leave!!!”

Below you can see the original full statement from April, per the Amalfi Ristorante Facebook page:

“The time has come for us to officially announce that after 45 years we will be looking to relocate out of Montgomery County later this year. In the next couple of months, we will be putting up Amalfi for sale and we will be getting ready for the next phase in our lives. We will be selling both the building and for the right price even the Amalfi name, including all of our recipes.
We would like to thank all of our wonderful regulars a million times over for all of your years of patronage. We will miss you all and will never forget you. It is our wish to leave an Amalfi here for you but it will all depend on the best offer we get. We do promise to maintain our quality and excellence up until that very last shift. In honor of our father and all of you, our wonderful faithful regulars, we will do our very best till the very end.
This is a long process and once we sign on the dotted line then it will probably be a couple months till our last day of business. We will consistently keep you all updated as we move further along in the process. I know many of you will want to make sure you get to come back before we leave but remember Fridays and Saturdays are already usually fully booked before this announcement. After word gets out, I imagine they will be even crazier and it will be even harder to get a table. So please don’t forget to give Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays some love as well.
Thank you all again for your support and kindness over the past four decades. We wish you all the very best and may God bless each and every one of you. It was our honor and pleasure to serve you.”
