Gino’s Steak & Onion Owner to Marry Partner on Final Day of Business
Josh Amidon, the owner of Gino’s Steak & Onion in Fayetteville, New York, took to Facebook on July 13 to announce his upcoming wedding with his partner, Joe, on the last day of the restaurant’s operation. Originally planning to tie the knot in the fall within the premises, Amidon decided to move the date forward due to lease negotiations falling through.
To bid farewell to their beloved establishment, known for its viral “Malibu Barbie Dream Drizzle” sauce that gained popularity in 2023, Amidon and Joe will be hosting a wedding event for customers on Monday, July 14. The celebration will feature free food and drinks from 5 pm to 8 pm, with Amidon emphasizing that it will be a fun and fitting way to close shop.
In a heartfelt Facebook post, Amidon shared their decision to advance the wedding plans, expressing disappointment over the failed lease negotiations. He welcomed the public to join their special day and suggested cash donations in lieu of gifts, with the collected funds to support the restaurant staff during the transition period.
Following the closure, Amidon revealed that the restaurant’s contents would be packed and stored away, leaving the future open to possibilities. Whether it’s another location, a new concept, or potential partnerships, Amidon remains optimistic about what lies ahead beyond Gino’s Steak & Onion.
