The two are willing to put in the fourteen-hour days, seven days a week, that it takes to make a restaurant succeed. Actually, they're more than willing; they're excited about it. "These guys, they have absolutely no attitude," Colantonio says. "They just want to do something. They just want a space to do great things in."

And now they've got the space, since the Manhattan Grill closed for good this past weekend. Now come three frantic weeks of tastings, menu planning, remodeling and cleaning, followed by a flash of panic, followed by grim acceptance, followed by an opening scheduled for sometime next month.
