On Tuesday we got a message from one of our sales executives that Dean Barberie was interested in speaking with us. Dean and his Barberie's restaurants have been chatted about on social media a lot lately and he wanted to clear up any confusion the public may have. On October 30, 2023 the News Times published a piece about the restaurants Dean co-owns. The article shared two items with the public, Barberie's purchased the old Chuck's Steakhouse restaurant and they would be closing their Barberie's eatery in the mall.
