Amis, created by Marc Vetri who owns three Amis restaurants in Philadelphia, is part of the Vetri family of restaurants that includes restaurants under the names of Osteria, Pizzeria Vetri, Alla Spina and Lospiedo.
Urban Outfitters, a $3.3 billion company, made its first move to casual dining with the December 2015 acquisition of Vetri.
Anthropologie, also owned by Urban Outfitters, will relocate from 1365 Post Road East to Bedford Square where it will occupy 40,000 square feet.
The Historic District Commission and the Architectural Review Board meet Tuesday, Sept. 6 to discuss exterior wall signs for Anthropologie & Co. and Amis Trattoria since the site is in the Business Center Historic District.
