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.

    Dinner was delicious. I took our server Carvel’s recommendation and ordered the veal. It was spectacular. My husband had the seafood pasta and it too was delicious. Carvel was so sweet and attentive. We will definitely go again and ask for her. The valet parking was a great perk too!

    Delicious meal. Best meatballs we have ever had. The bolognese was delicious. We were traveling with a child with Celiac disease and the gluten free options were amazing. He enjoyed biscuits, gnocchi, and a cannoli dessert thoroughly!! The free valet parking was chef’s kiss!

    It’s been a little over a year since I have been in the restaurant. Everything was great! The food was superb. The white staff were professional and attentive. The valet, hostess, and bus staff were all very friendly and helpful. If you choose to eat here, you’re making a great choice.
