PITTSFIELD, Mass. — After three years in business on East Street, Sibaritas is moving downtown.

On Monday, the Licensing Board approved a new annual downtown all-alcohol restaurant license for the eatery's new location in the former Trattoria Rustica at 27 McKay St.

"I couldn't be happier for you," board member Jon Lifergren said. "I think it's a win-win move and I'm really excited about it."

Other board members agreed and Chair Thomas Campoli coined the East Street operation as a "wild success."

Megan and Ronald Gomez opened the Italian restaurant with a Chilean flare in 2021 in the former Elizabeth's Restaurant at 1264 East St. Sibaritas — a Spanish word that refers to a person who appreciates good food — makes almost everything in-house. The menu includes fresh pasta, flatbreads, salads, breakfast pastries, and coffee.

Together, the duo has more than 30 years of experience in the field.

"We're moving Sibaritas to the new location and then once we are up and rolling successfully there then we will go back and revisit what we're going to do with the [East Street] building, if we're going to open up a new restaurant or if we're going to sell the location. It's still up in the air," Megan Gomez explained when asked about the former location that they own.

There was an inquiry about the fate of the former liquor license, as they can either operate two establishments or transfer it to another one.
