A new lunch-dinner option in Coconut Point has the trappings of a fine-dining restaurant but it provides a fun, relaxed, casual dining experience. Divieto Ristorante opened Monday in the regional mall in Estero. The Italian restaurant replaces Bice Grand Café, which closed last June after operating nine years.

Divieto offers a fusion of traditional Italian and classic American cuisines with a welcoming ambiance in classy black and white. “As its name suggests — Divieto is Italian for "prohibition" — the restaurant's décor and vibe is a modern version of 1920's New York in the time of Prohibition, flappers, mafia groups and the fusion of two cultures that gave us the Italian-American cuisine we all love,” according to a Divieto news release.
