A CENTURY OF FLAVOR
It all began in a quaint village in between Rome and Naples, where our culinary heritage was passed down through generations. With each new chapter, we added our own touches to the recipes, adapting ingredients to suit our American journey. The flavors were further refined at our restaurant overlooking Downtown Pittsburgh. Every ingredient and recipe has been meticulously perfected over the years. These are the authentic flavors
of our family, and they’re sure to be a taste your family will adore. CENTO ANNI
