Food Files: What’s Italian for ‘extra space’? Ecco at Overton Park expands.
“In the past, if we had a wedding rehearsal dinner, we’d have to shut down the whole restaurant just for that party,” Ecco co-owner John Paul Gagliano said. “Now we’re able to host an 80-person event (in the new space) and still continue service for our regular customers.” (Brad Vest/Special to The Daily Memphian)
Ecco Lounge is fitted with couches, chairs, tables and wall accents, including the signage Ecco Sala, meaning lounge in Italian.
