Look for Joe Pesce, a Mediterranean restaurant with Asian influences, to open soon on Haddon Avenue in Collingswood. Entrees will be $16 to $28. Owner Robert Liccio and his brother, Chef Joseph Tucker, recently opened Joe Pesce at the site of their former restaurant, Pompeii, on Walnut Street in Philadelphia. Tucker previously owned Joe Pesce in Ventnor, Tucker’s Steak & Seafood House in Somers Point, Joseph’s in South Philly, and Joseph’s on the Avenue.
The Philadelphia Joe Pesce has already received rave reviews for its “fresher, less-formal Italian” menu from The Philadelphia Inquirer. The Collingswood addition to the restaurant lineup will make an already interesting block on Haddon Avenue even more of a foodie’s destination.
