Popular Fremont Italian Restaurants
From small and classy to fresh and fast, Fremont Italian restaurants vary in style. The following Fremont Italian restaurants include old and new favorites that offer pizza, pasta, and continental favorites that originate beyond the borders of Italy.
Massimo’s
Massimo’s was founded in 1976 by Bill Massimo Rinetti, whose family immigrated from Sicily in the early 1900s. Bill was a lifetime student of cooking, bringing traditional Italian staples, continental cuisine and a unique cooking style to the table. The restaurant continues to be family run, with hard work and dedication to quality as the backbone. Select a pasta layered in the signature Massimo sauce, or go with the likes of an all-American with a Massimo’s burger instead.
