Villa-O coming to Travis Walk. Really. Soon.

Pretty much all summer we've been telling you about Villa-O, the "organic pastaria" planned by entrepreneur Robert Colombo. It's occupying the former Samba Room space in Travis Walk, across the street from Mr. Colombo's wildly popular Trece.

First Villa-O was planned to open in October. Then they said in November. Now they're saying early December.

In case you wondered: This sort of delay is entirely typical of most new restaurants, because restaurants all seem to be run by extremely optimistic people. They have to be optimistic, or they wouldn't be in this very tough business for long.

We'll keep you posted. From the description (fresh handmade pastas to mix-and-match with sauces and extra ingredients, 50 Italian wines, a "family night" on Sunday with $15.95 prix-fixe, three-course, all-you-can-eat dinner menu), it sounds as if Villa-O will be worth waiting for.
