Fazio’s named <strong>Best</strong><br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> among<br />

Italian eateries<br />

A family-owned ma<strong>in</strong>stay <strong>in</strong> Charleston s<strong>in</strong>ce<br />

1950 -- and here to stay, Fazio’s is still so overwhelm<strong>in</strong>gly<br />

popular and beloved that Charleston<br />

Gazette-Mail readers, <strong>in</strong> both Kanawha and Putnam<br />

counties, deemed it <strong>the</strong> best Italian restaurant<br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Kanawha <strong>Valley</strong> for <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

Au<strong>the</strong>ntic, homemade Italian cuis<strong>in</strong>e -- from<br />

pastas to pizzas and appetizers to desserts -- plus a<br />

savory steak and seafood menu; an extensive w<strong>in</strong>e<br />

selection, available by bottle, carafe or glass; and a<br />

warm, Old World atmosphere are among <strong>the</strong> attributes<br />

that have established Fazio’s as a desirable<br />

d<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g dest<strong>in</strong>ation over six-plus decades.<br />

“It’s nice to have that recognition,” said owner<br />

Danny Fazio, <strong>the</strong> son of founder Joe. “We try to<br />

stay consistent with our food -- and with our customers.<br />

We have a lot of customers who come once<br />

or twice a week. We’re thankful for those customers<br />

and thankful to <strong>the</strong> community for support<strong>in</strong>g<br />

us.<br />

“I’ve been here s<strong>in</strong>ce I was 11 and I’m 62 now. We<br />

dedicate ourselves to <strong>the</strong> restaurant. My wife and I<br />

are hands-on here every day,” he said.<br />

Fazio added that a few rumors circulat<strong>in</strong>g that<br />

<strong>the</strong> restaurant might be clos<strong>in</strong>g aren’t true. “We<br />

just sold some of our property to AEP to build a<br />

substation,” he expla<strong>in</strong>ed.<br />

“Believe me, we’re not go<strong>in</strong>g anywhere. We’re<br />

here for <strong>the</strong> long haul.”<br />

Fazio’s is located at 1008 Bullitt St. <strong>in</strong> Charleston.<br />

D<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g hours are 5 to 9:30 p.m. Tuesday through<br />

Saturday. The restaurant is closed on Sunday and<br />

Monday.<br />
