Four licenses are available.
Restaurants for Moorestown Mall?
Michael Klein, Philly.com
Filed Under: TableTalk
With historically dry Moorestown approving the issuance of four liquor licenses to Moorestown Mall, the next question: Which restaurants will take them?
Marc Vetri, who had been publicly courted last year by mall operator Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust, says he is still in negotiations. After signing a letter of intent last fall, Vetri told me he was teeing up a scaled-down version of Osteria for the mall.
Other operators - mainly chains - are in talks with PREIT, including Cheesecake Factory, which opened a Grand Luxe Cafe at PREIT's Cherry Hill Mall earlier this summer.

So the survival of this Mall depended on places like the Cheesecake Factory? Blecch.— Palestra Jon- Not everyone can afford to eat at Vetri restaurants or other upscale eateries. While I'm not a fan of Cheesecake Factory, I realize it has its purpose (affordability, family friendly, etc.)— phillygrub
- If I see another Cheesecake Factory being built, I'm gonna barf. Oh, wait...they're building one at the Quakerbridge Mall near my home! Excuse me a moment......— esterrick
