Our Story
Growing one location
Growing one location
at a time.
In 2001 we opened our very first location on Hempstead Turnpike in East Meadow. One goal: mirror the way our grandparents used to shop — visiting trusted neighborhood artisans for bread, meat, cheese, and pasta — and bring that experience under one roof.
Over 20 years later, we’ve grown to a family of 12+ locations across Long Island, Westchester, and New Jersey — including our East Meadow store — each carrying the same uncompromising commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and making every customer feel like family. Mangia Bene.
