Over the past three years, Chefs Hedy and Talia Trovato have built Coppia, their fine-dining restaurant in Chesterland, into an east-side favorite and destination for diners coming from all across Northeast Ohio.
Come early next year, it will have a new home as they finish construction that they say will allow them to more effectively deliver on their mission.
While the owners are electing to keep some details quiet for now – including the precise location – they have shared that the newly built restaurant will have a 50-seat dining room with “modern-organic design.”
"Coppia is, and always was, so much more than a passion project for us," Hedy Trovato told Scene. "This restaurant makes up a vast part of our lives and is a self expression of us as chefs."
"From the very beginning we imagined a fine dining experience where the food, service and atmosphere were completely harmonious," she added. "During our time in Chesterland, we did start to noticeably outgrow our kitchen and dining room space. So we wanted to design an area that could allow our concept to keep growing and moving forward."
The room will also boast an 8-seat chef’s table. Like the original, the fine-dining eatery will feature seasonally changing a la carte and tasting menus paired with signature cocktails and sommelier selected wines.
We'll keep you updated as the chefs offer updates and more information on the location and expected opening date.
As for now, the restaurant in Chesterland continues to hum along as always.
