			==History==
			The original Luigi's Diner was a Food Fight restaurant at the corner of King and East Main streets, which closed in 2004 after about seven years. Bill and Melanie Horzuesky, who had run it for most of that time and owned the Monroe Street Bluephies, revived the name in 2011 in new construction at Sequoya Commons, with the same designer, Ed Linville<ref name="mc-2011-07-24-luigis-revived">Kalk Derby, S.

Planned for mid-September, it was open by November 2011: counter ordering, wooden booths, thin-crust pizzas brushed with cornmeal in 10- and 14-inch sizes, wine on tap and a build-your-own cannoli bar<ref name="ct-2011-11-10-p9">(2011, November 10).
