The Barbaro family has been involved in the restaurant business for over 40 years. Vito Barbaro first immigrated to the United States from Italy in 1955. Upon his arrival, he began working at a small pizzeria in Brooklyn. In 1977, Vito opened his first restaurant, Pizza Beat, in Yonkers, New York. For over 20 years, Pizza Beat served nothing but the finest southern Italian cuisine. In 1995, his wife Ivana along with their two sons, Gino and Mark, set off to Mahopac to open Gino’s Trattoria (formerly Tony’s Pizza). In 1997, Vito left Pizza Beat and joined the rest of his family to complete “the Trattoria.”
From broccoli rabe, to Prosciutto di Parma, the key to the Gino’s success is the fresh and seasonal ingredients. The Trattoria is also known for its creative menu choices, such as the popular homemade focaccia sandwich. When you come to Gino’s you will be greeted by a warm and friendly staff. So, come and join us for a wonderful meal.
Grazie and Buon Appetito
