SALISBURY — Cooper’s restaurant has closed.
Saturday was the last day of business for the downtown eatery at 122 E. Fisher St. Leslie and Joseph Cataldo owned and operated the restaurant in Salisbury’s entertainment district for two and a half years.

Long-time restaurateurs and caterers, the Cataldos thanked old friends “for sticking with us through your love, prayers and support” and told new friends, “we wish to continue our friendships into the future.”
The news came as a surprise to many, including employees and loyal customers who posted heartsick messages on the restaurant’s Facebook page.
