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.

    We have a family tradition of eating on “the Hill” on the Sunday before Thanksgiving and this year we chose Massimo. It did not disappoint. The hostess and the servers were excellent and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Not only were the meals delicious, our drinks and deserts were excellent as well! We got to sit upstairs looking out at the city and it added to the experience. I would certainly go back and recommend this restaurant to family and friends.

    Decent food but the staff were generally uninterested/borderline rude -especially the hostess. Guy who cleared the table was the friendliest of the lot. Nice lighting and vibe but the overall feel was slightly glorified, Italian version of The Cheesecake Factory.

    We went for an anniversary and Massimo does it right! They had special table set and was a great touch! The food and service was excellent, as expected! Unfortunately, it was quite noisy at 6:00 pm and difficult to hear my wife and waitress. Otherwise, another great experience.

    We all had a wonderful time. We each got different drinks and loved them all. Our entrees were just as good! We have a great booth, perfect for all of us to chat and catch up with each other!
