    For six decades – and counting – the Rugiero family has worked hard preparing fresh, authentic Italian dishes including award-winning pizzas, calzones, Lasagna, veal dishes, soups and, of course, their famous fresh baked bread. Everything is made the old fashion way “Fata in Casa” (in house) and the pasta at all five locations is made fresh daily. Andrea Bocelli prepared Spaghetti Carbonara in their kitchen, but nothing beats Mama Rita’s gnocchi with Rita sauce.

    Antonio Francisco Rugiero Sr., a native of Calabria, Italy, came to America in 1960 and realized his version of the American Dream when he opened his own restaurant, Roman Village, in Dearborn where he met his wife Enrica that soon became his greatest asset. Their sons have established the familiar name, Antonio’s Cucina Italiana, in multiple locations and all feature authentic Italian dining combined with Rugiero family hospitality.

    “The quality is in the details,” says Anthony Rugiero, also known as Antonio Jr. “We go the extra mile to bring real authentic Italian to the table”. Like a great dish of pasta, it starts with simple fresh ingredients. A business needs a simple, but effective protocol that everyone supports to achieve 60 years of success and a lot of hard work.

    There is always a family member at the restaurants, including the new generation overseeing the day-to-day operations, and their extended family of 300 staff, many of whom have been part of the 60-year journey. This is quite a leap, considering the beginning when Antonio Sr. employed four people, including himself.

    The Rugiero’s have been blessed over the past 60 years with the number of wonderful people that have walked through their doors to break bread with them and host many celebrations held at their restaurants. They want to thank you for being part of their journey.
