“The inspiration for the new concept came from traveling through the Rome and Abruzzo regions with my wife Cristina and father Tomaso,” says Joey Maggiore, chef and co-founder of The Maggiore Group and Chef Joey Concepts. “We loved the grilled meats and the porchetta, and I am still dreaming about it.”
Known for their over-the-top concepts and unique menu items, The Rosticceria will carry The Maggiore Groups’ legacy torch. The new restaurant will feature Abruzzo-style cooking with a menu collection of wood-fired meats with an Italian twist. Menu favorites will include Arizona’s only authentic Neapolitan fried pizza, rotisserie chicken and porchetta, a savory Italian culinary tradition that will be an exclusive item in Arizona. Guests can also expect interactive elements which will include a build-your-own soft serve gelato shake bar with over 40 toppings offered and wearable alcoholic beverages poured in no other than Italian horns on gold chains.
The new 5,372 square foot restaurant will feature both indoor and outdoor seating to accompany a total of 226 guests. The interior design of The Rosticceria, led by Chef Joey’s talented wife Cristina Maggiore, will be next-level and incorporate inspiration from their travels – envision Roman relics and graffiti. The venue will also feature an innovative DJ booth to provide weekly live entertainment.
The Italian concept is now hiring for dozens of positions including servers, bartenders, food runners, bussers, expeditors, hosts, line cooks and dishwashers.
