BEAVERCREEK — The Dayton area’s second Dibella’s Old Fashioned Submarines restaurant is scheduled to open this spring at 2544 Zink Road just north of Colonel Glenn Highway near Wright State University.

Unlike Dibella’s first restaurant in the region — which opened in an existing commercial building in January at 1191 Miamisburg-Centerville Road (Ohio 725) in Washington Twp. — the Beavercreek restaurant will be new construction, according to Micah Sharpe, area supervisor for DiBella’s. The target opening date is April 1, 2013, but that date “is subject to change,” Sharpe said.

The Beavercreek restaurant will seat 60 to 80 diners and will employ about 50 people, Sharpe said. “We normally start hiring crew members one month prior to opening the restaurant,” he said.

Rochester-based DiBella’s offers hot and cold subs, ranging from traditional Italian cold-cut sandwiches to buffalo chicken subs, in an atmosphere that evokes a 1940s-style corner-restaurant.

Sharpe said he had no new announcements to make regarding further expansion in the Dayton area. The opening of the Washington Twp. restaurant earlier this year generated “a really good response” from customers, Sharpe said. “That store had a really strong opening, and business has been very steady since we opened.”

Dibella’s operates six Cleveland-area restaurants and opened its second Columbus-area location in May.
