Popular Deer Park Restaurant Announces Closure

DEER PARK, NY - A popular Deer Park restaurant recently announced it will be shutting it doors next month after four years in business.

Verde Wine Bar and Ristorante, located on 450 Commack Road, will be serving its last meal just before Christmas.

"Its with a heavy heart we have to announce Verde Wine Bar is closing," a post on the eatery's Facebook page reads. "Our last day of service is going to be the 22nd of December. We want to thank our amazing staff and our wonderful guests, we will miss you."

In a report in Newsday, co-owner Anthony Carcaterra said that the reason for the closure is due to the fact that they were unable to extend the lease for the property after the landlord decided to reconstruct the entire industrial building, located near Tanger Outlets.

Carcaterra also announced on Facebook that in the last few weeks, Verde will be changing the menu as part of a tribute to his parents life work "Papa Joe's."

Until the restaurant's closure, Verde will not be serving its brunch or lunch menu.
