Ristorante Ottaviani
When you eat at Ristorante Ottaviani, you're treated as if you're a member of the family. Enjoy the legacy of traditional Italian family recipes, which have been passed down from generation to generation and are served in a relaxed yet beautiful setting. It's a New York-style Italian restaurant in Cumberland, Maryland.
Luigi Ottaviani, a young Italian guy, traveled to America with his family in the early 1900s to pursue his fortune. His money came from a hard life of mining coal in Western Pennsylvania and rearing six children, one of them was called Antonio. Aqapito Romano, another young Italian male, arrived in America about the same time. He, too, worked in coal mines before marrying Mary DeFigio. The couple had ten children, one of them was a girl named Firenza.
Firenza Romano met, fell in love with, and married Antonio Ottaviani as fate would have it. They had four children, again supported by a coal miner's pay, which Antonio supplemented with the fruits of his labor on a farm.
Phillip and Adrienne, the restaurant's owners, had an ambition of operating an Italian restaurant. Ristorante Ottaviani, a family-owned and operated restaurant established around the concept of old family recipes and a commitment to superior service in a family atmosphere, opened in 2005 with very little money and no expertise. Almost often, members of the Ottaviani family are present to greet guests and ensure that they have a memorable dining experience.
