From Joseph + Esther DeQuattro of Pane Vino comes the much anticipated Massimo. Massimo brings the quintessential Italian trattoria to Providence’s Federal Hill Neighborhood. Offering a contemporary Italian menu inspired by the regional cuisines of Italy. Signature dishes include the Spaghettini alla Carbonara; Fig & Gorganzola Pizza; and House-Cured Duck Confit “Anatra”.

Massimo is classically designed to create a warm and lively setting. Massimo’s spacious dining room and glass-enclosed private dining room—including a full bar & lounge—make it the perfect place for occasions of all scopes and sizes, whether it’s a quiet night out with friends and family, or a boisterous celebration with dozens of guests.

Massimo has unique Italian wines from small boutique Italian winemakers (available nowhere else!) and a cellar selection from Italy, Spain and California. Our approach to wine is accessibility, quality and variety to encourage unfettered enjoyment.

    The waitress was great, but the one in charge of clearing plates was very quick in wanting to take plates away while we were still enjoying food The Mediterranean Sea. Bass was great Chicken parm - fair. It was incredibly loud!

    Overall an excellent experience. We arrived early and our table was ready and we had a lovely delicious meal. The classic burrata was yummmmmy and we ordered the short rib gnocchi and filet. Everything was perfectly prepared.

    This service is the best part. Our waitress was fantastic. I told her I had a stomach ache and she suggested that I put bitters in my ginger ale and I felt so much better. What a doll! Ambience is quite lovely and the food was good

    Lunch at Massimo was outstanding. My wife had the lunch special and her ravioli was fantastic. I always come back for the Faroe Island salmon. It is the best fish offering I have ever tasted. Our server, Angelina, was knowledgeable and attentive. Perfect meal, just perfect.
