St. Petersburg will get a salty taste in January.
That's when Naples chef Fabrizio Aielli opens the second location of his award-winning restaurant Sea Salt at Sundial St. Pete in downtown St. Petersburg.
Sea Salt St. Pete is scheduled to open in mid-January in a 12,000-square-foot space on the retail complex's second floor. It will offer both indoor and outdoor seating for 300 diners, a 20-foot-tall wine tower with 6,000 bottles, an 80-foot long raw bar where diners can choose from 20 varieties of oysters, a lounge and a private chef's dining room.
The chefs at Sea Salt use hundreds of rare salts from around the world to heighten the flavors of food and drinks. The Naples restaurant uses 2,400 types of salt a year.
Since opening Sea Salt Naples in 2008, Italian-born Aielli has garnered some of the culinary industry's top national awards, including a “Best New Restaurant” award from Esquire in 2009. Prior to moving to Naples, Aielli developed three Washington, D.C., restaurants in the 1990s. Among them, Teatro Goldoni, received a “Best New Restaurant” award from Esquire in 1999 as well as AAA Five Diamond Award.
