New Clayton restaurant eyeing mid-August opening

CLAYTON — The chef-owner of the new restaurant to be called Urban Harvest Restaurant & Catering that is under renovation at 8331 N. Main St. in the Randolph Plaza says he is shooting for a mid-August opening.

Owner Matthew DeAngulo said the restaurant, which we first told you about in May , has experienced some construction delays but is now on track to open in the coming weeks.

“We are hammering away and finishing projects every day,” DeAngulo said.

DeAngulo was the founding chef at Olive, An Urban Dive restaurant in Dayton and formerly worked at several other Dayton-area restaurants, including Olivia’s, Neil’s Heritage House, Zola’s, Cafe Boulevard, Benham’s. His new restaurant will be located in a space that previously housed the Uptown Delicatessen.

Urban Harvest’s menu will focus on Midwestern casual food, with a strong emphasis on local sourcing of ingredients, DeAngulo said. MARK FISHER
