Story

Every great meal begins with an inspired menu, the highest quality ingredients, and a talented chef. Ultimately, though, it encompasses so much more—the sharing of conversation and tradition with family and friends, embracing the spirit of discovery and adventure, celebrating milestones and memories. Here at Avellino, the dining experience extends even further—beyond the table and into our open kitchen, where the interplay between Chef Rico Giovanello and his guests brings yet another facet to the meal.
Avellino’s story originates in a small village in Italy, and continues here today in our small New England town. Adelegita Giovanello, known by everyone as Gita, brings her young grandson Rico into her kitchen and teaches him the basics of Italian cooking. One of Rico’s first memories, back when he was just tall enough to reach the stove, is listening to the hot sear of sautéing mushrooms, smelling their earthy aroma, and watching the steam rise from the pan. This seemingly ordinary, everyday experience with his grandmother sparked a lifelong passion for cooking.
Gita shared with Rico not only the gastronomic traditions of her culture, but also instilled in him a desire to experiment with new ingredients and techniques. The menu at Avellino espouses this philosophy of sharing creative cuisine bred from a rich tradition of culinary excellence. As an Italian village celebrates its individual cheese, or its tomatoes, or its prosciutto, we at Avellino also take pride in our surroundings, using local ingredients whenever possible and making as much as we can by hand.
An enduring passion for excellence is imbued in all of Rico’s endeavors—his inventive, seasonal menu planning, the care he takes in ensuring that his fresh pasta and sauces are perfectly paired, and his desire to share these pleasures with his guests, night after night.
From grandmother to grandson, neighbor to neighbor, family to friends, chef to guest—sit, eat, share, laugh, learn, experiment, enjoy. Celebrate.

Everything here was wonderful! The food was great, the building was beautiful and the server was fantastic. They easily accommodated a person in the party with food allergies and actually went above and beyond!

The woman at Treehouse Brewing turned my wife and I on to Avellino. She was totally right. It's "off the boat" Italian food in Sturbridge Mass. They used to serve Treehouse when we first started going. But the wine is unreal. The gnocchi is to die for, melts in your mouth. We now go multiple times a year, over 40 mins away, but then again so is the North End. And we plan to make it an annual trip for our anniversary since Italy will likely never be in our budget.
