Dario’s was a much-loved and popular restaurant in Doncaster in the 1970s and 1980s, standing alongside the A19 between Bentley and Askern and a familiar landmark at the junction with Sutton Road.

Last Spring, the name bounced back with the opening of a new Italian restaurant with the same name in the same location – delighting diners across Doncaster.

A spokesman said: “Friday 26 April marks the one year anniversary of when the doors to Dario’s Ristorante officially opened – so we thought we would celebrate our first anniversary with a twist.”

From 7pm, popular DJ, Anton Raphael, will be bringing diners a selection of 80’s classics.

The spokesman added: “You can expect a selection of cool electronic 80’s pop, disco and club classics, along with a few guilty pleasures, providing a soundtrack to what should be a very special night to remember.
