La Mesa residents and visitors can welcome Aromi Italian Restaurant to the business community with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, Aug. 9.

Located at 7200 Parkway Drive in La Mesa, the restaurant will have its official ribbon cutting at 6 p.m. The evening mixer will run from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

La Mesa Chamber of Commerce will be on hand to host the event, which will highlight the recent remodel of the once vacant location. Those in attendance can meet the managers and staff as they sample appetizers from the menu. Beverages can also be purchased from the menu.

The Chamber will host a raffle throughout the night. Attendees can bring their business cards while they mix and mingle. The event is free to Chamber members and $15 per person for all guests. Due to the chosen mixer area in the restaurant, no “At Door” attendees will be accepted.

Those looking to attend can RSVP now to: rsvp@lamesachamber.com or register online. (Photo credit: Aromi Italian Restaurant)
