A metro-east pizzeria may be relocating elsewhere in town.

Schiappa's Italian Restaurant at 1050 Eastgate Drive in O'Fallon has closed. The business's website lists 1411 W. Highway 50 in O'Fallon as its address, but does not indicate whether the restaurant is moving to that location across from Sam's Club.

A spokesman for family that owns the restaurant chain could not be reached for comment. Shiappa's also has a location in Lebanon.

A hand-written sign posted on the front doors of the shuttered pizzeria on Eastgate Drive announces the recent closure and that another restaurant, to be known as Amore Ristorante, will be opening there next month.
