    ABOUT THE COMPANY

    Paravicini's Italian Bistro was opened in April 2003 by Chef Franco in Colorado Springs. Chef Franco was raised by Italian immigrants in Waterbury, Connecticut. While Franco is a trained chef, and a graduate of Baltimore Culinary College, his love for cooking and cooking style comes from his greatest mentor, his mother Mary Pisani. Chef Franco has been featured on many local news networks, and with Guy Fieri's, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. “That’s a real-deal, old-school Italian dish,” Guy declared of the Veal Giuseppe, which comes loaded with cherry peppers, Kalamata olives and sausage. We refuse to compromise on quality in our restaurant. That is why we source our fresh ingredients from local sources for many of our dishes. Chef Franco has built a loyal following with his devotion to fresh, hearty Italian meals made from family recipes.
