  • California Pizza Kitchen plans to replace Alcatraz Brewing Co. on the first floor of Circle Centre mall. Alcatraz has occupied the space at the southeast corner of Illinois and Maryland streets since the mall opened in 1995. The Los Angeles-based publicly traded restaurant company California Pizza Kitchen, founded by attorneys Rick Rosenfield and Larry Flax in 1985, has more than 265 restaurants in 32 states and 10 foreign countries. It does not currently have any restaurants in Indiana.
  • Donatello’s Italian Restaurant, an intimate spot operated by the former proprietors of Arturo’s, has opened in Carmel’s Arts & Design District at 9 W. Main St. The owners are B. Patrick and Beth Aasen and their son Adam.
  • Chile Verde has taken 3,600 square feet at 8345 Pendleton Pike. The owner is Jose “Pepe” Cuevas, who also owns a Chile Verde location at 7369 N. Shadeland Ave.
