La nostra storia
Our story
Since 1974
Two brothers from Puglia, and the taste of home they carried with them.
Tony and Vito Petronelli grew up in Puglia, in Italy's sun-drenched south, where a love of Italian cooking and culture was part of everyday life.
In 1974 the brothers set out for the United States, following the many Italians who had come before them. Once here, they realized how much they missed the authentic cuisine and culture of home — and resolved to share it by opening a true Italian restaurant.
