Rumors have been swirling in Niagara Falls that the Como Restaurant, located on Pine Avenue, is closed for good.

The rumors caused a great many people on social media to express their anxiety over losing a cornerstone of Little Italy in Niagara Falls.

Fortunately for the city, that is not the case.
