Joe was born in Buffalo, NY, and has been in the restaurant industry for over 33 years, starting at 14 years old.  Having been a Las Vegas resident for the past 27 years, moving here to attend UNLV for Hotel Administration, Joe has over 22 years of management experience for restaurants, most recently as the managing partner for Outback Steakhouse on W. Sahara.

Rhonda, who is originally from Steubenville, Ohio, moved to Las Vegas over 25 years ago, and met Joe in 1983, and they married in 1984. With Rhonda’s Greek heritage, she brings a love of entertaining plus a true taste for authentic Mediterranean food.

 Joe has always had a desire to open his own restaurant. For years he managed a restaurant for others, but always yearned to have something he could call his own. Rhonda and Joe love to entertain and Joe could always be found in the kitchen cooking up a new creation. Joe’s love for the business comes from knowing that people have enjoyed the meal, service, and company.

 Every menu item is homemade, from recipes handed down generation to generation to new creations. The café is a family affair, with Joe’s mom Rose, son Joe, daughter Mia (when she’s back in town on college breaks) all can be found in the café, ready to help with a friendly smile and warm service.

 The café was decorated by Joe, Rhonda, and children Mia and Joe Jr. It stimulates the senses so the visitor feels the warm ambiance and atmosphere of dining in a café off the streets of a Greek or Italian village. Come in and see and taste for yourself.
