When Adriano Piazza opened Pronto Italian Deli, he imagined everything but learning a new food lexicon. A graduate of the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, Italy, with a thesis on the opening of a slow fast food in the USA, Adriano Piazza has recently opened a place in San Clemente, California, which is a modern revisitation of the classic Italian deli, a combination of rotisserie, deli, restaurant, the Italian “tavola calda”, market of Italian gastronomic products and Italian beers and wines.

A deli with a restaurant mentality as he likes to say. Working at the deli, we love to sit down with guests in the same style as in an Italian “osteria”, tavern, recreating the atmosphere typical of the Bel Paese where the host is also a friend with whom to chat about life and love, between a plate of spaghetti and a glass of Chianti.
