After seven years as owners of Daddabbo's Pizza, Carey Eidel and his wife, Angela Daddabbo, are moving on.

On Tuesday the Auburn couple sold their pizzeria on Genesee Street in downtown Auburn to a New York City couple with a young child wanting to establish a life outside the hustle and bustle of city life.

Guillermo Salinas, a professionally trained chef who studied in France and Italy, and his wife, Gabriella, will take over and renovate the restaurant, Eidel said. They plan on adding fresh pasta, traditional Italian and grill pizzas as entrees while keeping what the restaurant is known for: the pizza, charbroiled wings and homemade bread.

"I want to give a heartfelt thank you to all of our customers and supporters over the years that have been so great," Eidel said. "We hope they continue to support this new person that is bringing energy and money into the town. I think this is the way Auburn is going to grow."
