Guerino “Greenie” Abruzzi & Orazio Rossi originated Café 422, on a site near the present Eastwood Mall on route 422 east of Warren. Café 422 was an instant success and the partners decided to expand to a new location New Year’s eve, 1949, was the opening of the current larger restaurant. The restaurant expanded in 1978 with an addition to the front of the building and an enlargement of the bar and lounge. In 2006 the restaurant was acquired by a new owner adding more modern improvements, however, still maintaining the long-established family atmosphere. Updates include exquisite art work, more spacious booths, and windows that brighten up the main dining area, which now overlooks a beautiful patio with handicap accessibility.
