Big fish announces Italian seafood restaurant opening in Rehoboth

Sazio, an upcoming restaurant in downtown Rehoboth Beach, will play up Big Fish's mainstay - seafood - through Italian dishes.

Zebra may have shuttered in downtown Rehoboth Beach, but its Italian legacy lives on through Sazio, an upcoming restaurant promising to play up seafood through Italian dishes.

The menu will be entirely different from Zebra, according to Big Fish Restaurant Group managing partner Eric Sugrue.

Sazio is across from Stingray, another restaurant in the Big Fish family. 

Renovations are underway to give the restaurant a more modern, coastal Italian feel.Think the Amalfi coast, with its pastel-colored villages on craggy, golden coastlines. 

This will be Big Fish's first take on Italian in the Rehoboth area. Why bring Italy into the seafood mix?

"It's a concept that Rehoboth is looking for," Sugrue said. 

Sugrue said the goal is to open Sazio before the summer season hits.
