Striper Bites, a staple restaurant in downtown Lewes for the last 20 years, will soon become property of the Big Fish Restaurant Group.
Big Fish President and Managing Partner Eric Sugrue confirmed during an interview March 8 that his group will be taking over the Savannah Road restaurant, which was opened by Matt and Ali DiSabatino in the summer of 2001.
“Matt and I have been friends for a long time,” Sugrue said. “This whole deal happened in a friendly way. We met behind closed doors for well over a month and we worked it out. He decided to start a new chapter in his life, so he was looking for somebody to continue the legacy.”
