Wilmington’s Gallucio’s closes after 55 years

Gallucio’s, the beloved Italian spot in Wilmington’s Forty Acres, just shut its doors without warning after nearly 55 years. Regulars and staff are stunned—not just by the closure, but by how abruptly it happened. Employees were told to clear out customers and hand over cash and alcohol, all with no explanation. For many, Gallucio’s was more than a restaurant; it was a neighborhood hub where everyone knew your name. Now, longtime staff and loyal patrons are left without a chance to say goodbye. How do you feel about losing such a local institution so suddenly? #Food #Wilmington #Gallucios
