THE MEENA HOUSE” will be an inspiring restaurant, combining an eclectic atmosphere with excellent and authentic yet modern Indian food created by Chef Umesh Meena
Our Concept became a reality through inspiration from two particular families who provided us with generations of secret recipes and techniques. Along the Southern Coast in Naples the Rizzo family gave us direction on several traditional dishes, many of which they serve their families today. Bold flavors, fresh herbs, and seafood right off the docks are all staples in the Rizzo home.
In Northern Italy we were fortunate to find the Pisoni Family who were passionate about their cattle and poultry. Their ribeye cuts, veal, free range chicken and tender filet mignon were the most exquisite we’d ever seen. They shared the mastery of cooking with whole cream, hand churned butter, sautéing and reducing of fine wines until they created the smoothest, silkiest sauces we’d ever tasted.
Our thanks and gratitude is owed to the Rizzo/Pisoni families. In honor of their Italian heritage and our appreciation for them allowing us into their lives, we’re so very proud to bring you Rizzoni’s!
