History
Augustine's Italian Village was started in 1957. The original site was 1909 E. Washington Street in New Castle, Pennsylvania (across from Cascade Park). Augustine's Italian Village then moved to 833 E. Lutton Street, New Castle, Pennsylvania, in 1960. On November 8, 2015, Augustine's Italian Village had a fire and lost everything. They reopened and move to 427 Commerce Avenue, which is now their current location.
Since the fire, Augustine's Italian Village no longer has a take out restaurant.
