Restaurateur Tony Monaco to Open Second Location at Irvine’s Eighteen Main

Restaurateur Tony Monaco will open his second Eighteen Main eatery, Monaco Italian Kitchen + Bar, later this year. The new location will be part of EMMES Realty Services of California LLC and Oaktree Capital Management, L.P.’s development at Centerview, an office property, and its adjacent restaurant development Eighteen Main, both located in the Irvine Concourse.

Monaco Italian Kitchen + Bar is the eighth restaurant to sign at the property and the fourth and final restaurant to debut at Eighteen Main, a recently redeveloped 17,000-square-foot restaurant pad. It joins Izakaya Osen, Monaco’s The Trough Sandwich Kitchen and The Goldfinch at Eighteen Main. KIT Coffee, SOL Mexican Cocina, Maldon’s Bistro and Porch & Swing round out the culinary options at Centerview.

“EMMES continues to look for ways to create a vibrant workplace and generate positive leasing momentum, and the new addition of Monaco Italian Kitchen + Bar supports this goal,” said Justin Nguyen, SVP, asset management, EMMES. “The signing of the last restaurant lease represents not only a significant milestone for EMMES but also a strategic move by Monaco Italian Kitchen + Bar to contribute to the vibrancy and growth of the surrounding communities.”
