Piazza D Angelo in Mill Valley, Marin County, United States | Italian Restaurant

Piazza D Angelo in Mill Valley, California, United States is a family run business with a long history. In 1980, two brothers from the southern toe of Italy moved to Marin with dreams of opening an authentic Italian Restaurant. The dream came true a year later when co-owners Domenico and Paolo Petrone opened the now upscale trattoria Piazza D Angelo.

Originally from a small town called Decollatura in Calabria, Domenico Petrone and his brother Paolo immigrated to New York with their family in 1966. With only a high school education, Domenico went right into the restaurant business starting as a busboy and later as a waiter. At 23 years old he eventually owned an Italian Restaurant with his older brother called Villa Parma, in Long Island. In the meantime, Paolo Petrone stayed in school and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hunter College and a graduate degree from New York University and the University of Bologna. While on the east coast, Paolo also worked at Villa Parma and later ran a successful nightclub in Long Island.

In 1981 both brothers decided to move out to the west coast and settled in Marin. They discovered the charming town of Mill Valley, California and opened Piazza D Angelo Ristorante. In 1991, the brothers decided to renovate the once dark and old-fashioned restaurant into a lively, upscale trattoria. The restaurant now offers two outdoor garden patios, a wood-burning pizza oven, a full service bar, a front terracotta dining room with view of the piazza and a back dining room with a fireplace.

Piazza D Angelo is located right across from Mill Valley?s main piazza. Executive Chef Partner Nicola Nieddu takes pride in offering fresh and authentic Italian cuisine from both southern and northern regions of Italy. General Manager Partner Natale Cardamone selects over 200 wines from Italy and California for the wine list. Piazza D Angelo welcomes you to wine and dine with an authentic Italian experience!
