Humble Beginnings
Cousins Frank and Vinny were born to two sisters, Antoinette and Caterina, in a small town in Calabria, Italy. They came to America in the early ‘70s with their families. For over 15 years, Frank and Vinny worked in neighborhood pizzerias in New York City, perfecting their pizza-making skills. Their pasta-making knowledge comes straight from their mothers, who taught them all about the great pasta dishes you’ll find on the menu at Romano’s.
Romano’s: Houston’s #1 Pizza & Pasta Since 1998
Their big move to Houston came in October 1992. Both Frank and Vinny brought their families here to begin a new chapter in life. The pair started out at Napoli #5 on Memorial Drive but after several years decided they wanted something more. So in 1998 they opened what is now the #1 pizza and pasta restaurant in Houston - Romano’s on West Gray.
