MOORHEAD — Sol Ave. Kitchen, a new restaurant concept from Nikki Berglund and Ryan Nitschke, will open to the public Friday, Aug. 23, at 1408 1st Ave. N. next to Junkyard Brewing Co.

The business partners, who also operate Luna Fargo at 1545 S. University Drive, announced plans for the new restaurant in December. Soon after, they launched a Kickstarter campaign in hopes of garnering community support for the project. Within weeks, 213 backers had pledged the $75,000 necessary to renovate and furnish the space. In return, they will receive a number of gifts and perks.
