Tutto Famiglia... Everything Family. Our story begins many years ago when my father came over from Sicily. My father, Roberto, came to America in 1940 at the age of two. In 1968 he became Chef of Villa Nova Restaurant in Newport Beach. Roberto achieved his dream when he became Chef at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas where he cooked for many famous celebrities such as Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr. It was during this time that he met my mother, Mene. She grew up in the kitchen of my grandfather's restaurant in San Pedro, and she went on to open her own award winning Greek restaurant, Mene's Terrace , which is where I met my husband, Noel. He also has a passion for cooking and a love for the business. He has prepared meals for Julio Iglesias and Sugar Ray Leonard just to name a few. This family has worked hard, helped each other, and made each other's dreams become a reality.
