Pranzo Bistro

In Italian culture, pranzo is the most important meal of the day. It's the time when families stop whatever they're doing to gather around the table. Pranzo is meant to be enjoyed with the company of others- whether it's a budding friendship or a lifelong partnership. Ever since I was a kid, I've had a dream of having my own restaurant.

Watching my parents grapple with the chaos of running their own pizza place yet love what they did enchanted me. When I opened Pranzo at our first location on Vine street in 2007, I wanted to share my nostalgic experience of my family's love, bewilderment, and passion for the restaurant. Since our opening, we've been constantly evolving and using our creative ambition to expand past our comfort zone.
