OCEAN CITY, NJ — It was almost two years ago that Voltaco's closed its doors for good after its 69th season in business, to the dismay of locals and vacationers alike. But on July 1, a new Italian restaurant is opening in the same location.

"Patroni's offers a menu that’s both traditional and innovative, featuring classic dishes like decadent Italian entrees, delicious sandwiches, and an array of specials," the eatery's website reads.
