Owners of Robintino’s restaurant in Bountiful change their minds, decide to remodel instead of close

Earlier this week, Robintino’s restaurant in Bountiful closed its doors — and the owners said they were done after 55 years in business.

“We have decided to close for remodeling and a much-needed vacation,” Bob McCall said in a telephone interview. “We are definitely going to continue.”

McCall said he didn’t have a timeline for reopening, “but we want to get back into business as soon as we can."

The restaurant, he said, would keep the recipes and menu that have made it a south Davis County institution.

That’s a big change from earlier this week, when the McCalls posted a note on the front door of the Italian eatery, 1385 S.
