Giorgio’s Italian in Milpitas
Our Story – A Family Tradition Since 1959
In February of 1959, Frank and Concetta (Tina), along with their dear friends Mario and Enza Volpe, opened the doors to the original Giorgio’s Pizza House in the Foxworthy shopping center in San Jose. The restaurant was named in honor of an old friend—Giorgio—and quickly became a local favorite for its welcoming atmosphere and authentic Italian flavors.
Just a year later, Louise and Anthony Dambruoso, lovingly known as “Sash and Lou” and cousins of the family, took over operations, running Giorgio’s with heart and soul for the next eight years. Then, in 1968, the next generation stepped in—Frank and Tina’s four sons: Don, Nick, Frank, and John—purchased the restaurant and proudly continue to own and operate it to this day. Their legacy lives on through the cherished photos and paintings of family members that still grace the restaurant walls.
Over the decades, Giorgio’s has grown—but never lost its roots.
