Does anyone when and/or why Vito's on Fort Street in Lincoln Park closed? I've been working mid-nights lately & only noticed earlier this week they were out of business. |

Lack of business in Downtown Lincoln Park, now a instant ghetto.
Thanks a lot SEARS and Southland Mall. |

Danny I doubt either of those things had to due with Vito's closing |

I would agree-they always seemed to be busy when I went there. Consider that Southland & Sears have been around a long long time. |

I knew the owners. I guess there was some "domestic dispute," and they closed the place. |

Christos-
That would seem a likely reason. It's too bad they had great pizza. |

Yeah, it was good stuff! We used to go there after school on half days and stuff ourselves with the "all you can eat pizza for $4", then shoot some stick. Good times.
I dont want to spread any rumors about the owners because they were friends, and i dont know the whole story, but i think it was just a simple family issue. |

According to the license they did have a little financial difficulties with some NSF checks. It is also marked as License Transfer pending. |
