Putting Frost Cloth on Your North Carolina Plants? The Timing Matters More Than You Think

Upscale Italian restaurant chain expands into Raleigh at Crabtree mall location

A major restaurant group is expanding in the Triangle as the mall makeover continues at Crabtree Valley. The upscale Italian chain Maggiano’s will open a new location at Crabtree next year, taking over the former Brio space at the mall. Maggiano’s is usually connected with shopping malls, but there’s currently only one location in the Triangle — at Durham’s Streets at Southpoint mall. Crabtree Valley owner Macerich confirmed the addition of Maggiano’s in an email. “Maggiano’s Little Italy has built its name on classic Italian-American dining, memorable experiences and timeless flavors, and it is exactly the kind of brand that becomes part of the destination,” said Guy Mercurio, Macerich’s vice president and director of national restaurant leasing, in an email. “As Crabtree’s redevelopment continues, we’re focused on adding more entertainment and bringing dining, retail and entertainment together to create a destination guests want to return to,” he wrote. “Maggiano’s strengthens that mix alongside both established names and distinctive new concepts.” Brio closed last year, a move that surprised many in the Triangle and coincided with the brand filing for bankruptcy in August 2025. The restaurant had been open for 15 years and left North Carolina without any Brio locations. Maggiano’s
