Welcome to Maggiano’s Little Italy, where every dish tells a story, and every meal is an invitation to share in the rich traditions of Italian cuisine. At Maggiano’s, we don’t just serve food; we serve an experience—a delicious trip back to the old country, where family, love, and laughter fill the air as much as the irresistible aroma of freshly prepared Italian dishes.
Our Story
Maggiano’s Little Italy was born out of a deep love for the classic Italian-American dining experience. The first Maggiano’s opened its doors in 1991 in Chicago, inspired by the vibrant Little Italy neighborhoods that dotted America in the early 20th century. Our founders envisioned a place where people could gather to enjoy generous portions of their favorite Italian dishes, prepared with the same love and care that Nonna would have poured into every meal.
Since then, Maggiano’s has grown into a beloved dining destination, with locations across the country. Despite our growth, we have remained true to our roots, offering guests a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like coming home. Our commitment to quality, authenticity, and hospitality has made Maggiano’s a favorite for family dinners, romantic dates, and special occasions.
Our Culinary Philosophy
At Maggiano’s, food is more than just sustenance—it’s a way to bring people together. Our culinary philosophy is simple: use the freshest ingredients, follow traditional recipes, and cook with love. We believe that when you do things the right way, you can taste the difference.
Every dish on our menu is inspired by classic Italian recipes, many of which have been passed down through generations. From our famous Spaghetti and Meatballs to our rich and creamy Fettuccine Alfredo, each plate is a tribute to the flavors and techniques that have made Italian cuisine a worldwide favorite.
But at Maggiano’s, we’re not just about tradition—we’re also about innovation. Our chefs are constantly experimenting with new ingredients and techniques, adding a contemporary twist to classic dishes. Whether it’s our signature Lighter Take menu, which offers lower-calorie versions of your favorite dishes, or our seasonal specials that highlight the freshest ingredients of the season, there’s always something new to discover at Maggiano’s.
