Moorestown Mall — which had suffered the failures of Distrito and Catelli Duo — will get two new restaurants.

South Jersey favorite Joe Italiano's Maplewood, a family-owned Italian restaurant with locations in Hammonton and Mays Landing, will take the space last occupied by Catelli Duo, which closed in June. Catelli Duo, still open in Voorhees, replaced Osteria, which closed in late 2015 after two years.

San Diego-based Hash House A Go Go — which boasts oversize portions of "twisted farm food" and cocktails in a wildly decorated atmosphere — will take the former Distrito location across the hall. HHAGG, open for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner daily, says it will source many of its ingredients from local farms. Distrito closed in May. Its West Philadelphia flagship is still open.

Mall owner PREIT, which said the restaurants are expected to open by the end of the year, also announced that the region's sole Fatburger would  open at Cherry Hill Mall by the end of the year.
