Our Story
A Family Legacy Since 1950
For over seven decades, Lorenzo’s Italian Restaurant & Bar has been more than just a place to dine — it has been a gathering place for families, friends, and neighbors. Founded on recipes passed down through generations, every dish we prepare reflects our Italian roots and the love we have for bringing people together.
In 1950, Lorenzo’s opened its doors with a simple promise — to bring the flavors of Italy to our community through food, family, and friendship. What began as a small neighborhood trattoria has grown into a beloved gathering place, where generations of families have come to celebrate milestones, share meals, and feel at home.
Established by the late Lorenzo Grosso, the restaurant is now in its seventh decade and third generation. Together with her son Peter, Angela Maffeo is carrying on the rich tradition established by her father by serving the finest Italian food for miles around to thousands of new and loyal customers every year.
Lorenzo’s proudly celebrated its 75th anniversary — a milestone that reflected not only our history but the loyalty and love of our guests who have made us part of their lives.
A Family Tradition
For more than seven decades, Lorenzo’s has been family-owned and operated, with each generation carrying forward the values of hospitality, hard work, and care for our guests. We’ve watched families grow, toasted countless anniversaries, and hosted unforgettable weddings, birthdays, and holiday gatherings.
The Experience Today
While much has changed since our early days, our mission has not: to create a place where people come together to enjoy delicious meals in a warm, welcoming atmosphere — a casual dinner, dining al fresco with live music on summer nights, or a catered event.
Looking Ahead
We remain committed to the traditions that made us who we are, while embracing new opportunities to bring people together — through catering, events, and the simple joy of sharing a meal. At Lorenzo’s, the table is always set, and there’s always a place for you.
