As we reported back in November, the owner of the Milestone restaurant in Wellesley and the owner of Sweet Basil in Needham were discussing a possible plan for Sweet Basil to take over the Wellesley spot at 13 Central St.
It now appears that plans have firmed up, with several publications reporting Sweet Basil’s Dave Becker indeed does plan to open an as-yet-to-be-named restaurant at the Milestone location in March.
The Globe, tipped off by a blog called Eater which cited an item in Improper Bostonian, says to “expect new twists on Greek, Lebanese, Israeli, and eastern Mediterranean food, with [Becker’s] own special cubed cous cous recipe.” The new eatery will reportedly have 100 seats and a full liquor license.
