November 2007 Email,
“Hi everyone!
On Wednesday, November 7, Sebastian’s was open for business for three years. That night, we celebrated with over 200 of our most loyal guests and friends while viewing our Kitchen Nightmares episode. The night was filled with some fantastic new dishes, lots of laughs and plenty of media coverage. We hope those of you who have enjoyed our restaurant over the years, but were not with us that evening, realize that everything you see on television isn’t true. Sebastian and I insist on high-quality food, service and ambiance. That said, we want to assure you we put out the best and freshest product we can. And we DON’T own a microwave! And we DO make our pizza dough fresh! And Sebastian is NOT a lunatic!
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support as we head into another year of business. We wouldn’t be Sebastian’s without all of you, and we can’t continue to grow without your referrals! We ask that you tell a few friends and have them tell a few friends and so on and so on! Oh, and if you haven’t booked your holiday party, now’s the time as the reservations are coming in fast and furious now.
Sebastian and I are supporters of the Wednesday’s Child program which can be seen each Wednesday at 10 pm on Fox 11 news with Christine Devine. From now until December 19, anyone who brings in a toy or new piece of clothing for a boy or girl, will receive 10% off of their bill. All items will be donated to Wednesday’s Child December 20 in time for Christmas!
If anyone has ANY questions, please do not hesitate to contact Sebastian directly by phone or email.
Sincerely,
Sebastian & Nichole Di Modica

“As of January 20th Sebastian’s will be closing the doors. We are moving back to Boston for family reasons. We are grateful and appreciative of all of you for not only your business support but the lifetime friendships we have made with a lot of you. For those of you who know Nichole and I this is not an easy thing for us to do because this was our everything, but without family you’ve got nothing and they need us right now.
We are keeping the same email address so if you need to contact us please do so at eatrelaxenjoy@aol.com. C’mon in and see us before it’s too late! We’d love the privilege to say goodbye in person.

i saw the show last night, and was appalled by the owner and how he acted on the show. I guess it’s closed for a reason.

What I could see is Sebastian was playing big shot with his wife’s money. The guy is a legend in his own mind!
