Popular Central Square restaurant Rendezvous has been sold; outgoing chef/owner Steve Johnson plans to spend more time at his second home in Westport and to open a new place in Tiverton, RI. The incoming owners are Greg Reeves and Mark Young, who have both worked at the nearby Green Street in the past. The deal is expected to be finalized in June, at which point Rendezvous will close for some small renovations before reopening in the late summer or early fall. UPDATE: Reeves and Young will change the name to Viale, the Globe reports, and they'll serve "Italian food with Mediterranean nuances." [BRT]
