By News Channel NebraskaLINCOLN, Neb. -- Valentino's has decided to permanently close its buffet and dining area near Holmes Lake Park in Lincoln due to labor shortages and the effects of COVID.
The location has been closed since October of 2020; but it had been operating as a Valentino's to-go, offering carryout and delivery.
Originally opened as a Valentino's Ristorante location in October 1974, the location began to offer the buffet in the late 70s and remodeled to the Grand Italian Buffet in the summer of 2002.
The buffet became a popular spot for weddings, anniversaries and family traditions for Lincoln residents for over 40 years.
Valentino's has several other locations for carryout and delivery throughout Lincoln.
