Matt notes:

“Looks like Bozzelli’s is open at Vermont and L NW

The folks from Bozzelli’s confirm:

“Yep, opened Monday. It’s just a soft opening. We hope to have a grand opening in early April. So far locals appear to love the authentic italian subs and pizza pies. Especially the Beef Meatball with Romano and Provonello.”
