The real estate development company announced a soft opening in ground-floor space by Fabrica Pizza, which brought the same menu offered at its Tampa location, featuring wood-fired pizzas, salads, Italian appetizers and gelatro.

W. Allen Morris, chairman and CEO of Allen Morris Company, said in a prepared statement that Fabrica Pizza is a “hip, artsy and cool restaurant” that will serve “as a lifestyle focal point at The Hermitage.”
