Tonno, Italian for “tuna.” Tonno opened in May 2016 and is housed in the former Blackburn Tavern space. Blending together chef Caturano’s favorite culinary styles, Tonno will feature coastal Italian seafood and a raw bar.
The 4,000 square foot venue will undergo a full renovation over the winter and the new space will be outfitted with a dining room, a lounge complete with a fireplace, a cocktail bar, and a private events room. Seating 90 people, Tonno will be open year-round.
Chef Caturano will design a culinary program that is rooted in coastal Italian seafood classics with specials that reflect the New England waters daily catches. Guests can expect to see items like roasted cod oreganata, coppino, octopus salad and roasted whole branzino.
The beverage program will consist of classic Italian cocktails and a selection of craft beers. From the vine, there will be a curated list of about 150 wines that are mainly focused on Italian varietals, with some additions from California.
Tonno is located at Two Main Street in Gloucester.
