Tipster Thomas Chau wrote in to give Bwog more information on the state of Pertutti, which has had its windows plastered over with paper for quite awhile now. When we last discussed Pertutti, shortly after its closure, we knew that it would be a trattoria owned by the proprietors of Nonna, a dubiously-reviewed Upper West Side Italian restaurant. Thomas informs us that the new name will be “Campo”, and that they’ll be serving food until 2 AM and drinks until 4. He cited prices of “around $10 for a pizza and $15-$20 for entrees.” Oh, well.
Bwog will be following up with the owners to learn more. Photos after the jump.

@puuuh writing from rome: trust no place named campo
@tchau the manager said that it will open this coming Thursday
@daslkdsa Do you think they’ll deliver? And when are they planning to open?
@Per tutti Just desserts for those of you who claimed that Pertutti was expensive and cheered its demise. You can savor the thought while gulping down a $15 scoop of Tiramisu.
@eww if people don’t like community food and juice, they really need to stop going there. the place is packed–probably cuz everything’s expensive.
@lkrd …but YOU said you introduced yourself. That doesn’t sound like the manager working the room. Why would you go up to him like that?
@random What are the prices for drinks and all that good stuff?
@Sounds like more of the same.
@why would you introduce yourself to the manager of a restaurant you’re eating at?
@is that a joke? … have you ever been to a restaurant? usually managers work the room, see how the food is, etc.
@is THAT a joke? no really though. why is this a favorite comment? it’s not really funny to me at all.
@yup bwog is wack, son
@uhh yeah what? that wasn’t funny, and i still don’t know why this person introduced himself to the manager then told us about it.
@i have to say i went to nonna’s last week and the food was excellent. i introduced myself to the manager of the new place and he seems really nice – they should be slated to open this week i think. for good italian food, the price range really isn’t too bad.
@anyone? Um…SHILL!!!
@yellow It’s totally sensible to introduce yourself to the manager. “Hello, my name is ____. I am a student at _____, and I anticipate that we will have a very productive business relationship over the next _ years. Please let me know if there’s anything I can do for you.”
@Yeah, if you’re a tool.
@green It seems you may not have gotten my irony.
@oh well when is it slated to open?
@Fuckers $15 for an entree as your starting price? We don’t need another CF&J
@is it meat? looks like garlic and peppers to me. maybe a sausage or two, but not a side of beef. that shit is all preserved.
@vvvvv is there some stipulation in the lease for that site that meat must be hung from the ceiling?
@we'll see how the food is, too expensive to become a columbia area staple…but another bar is always good especially after last year’s closings.
