Hello beautiful people, my name is Maria Delvecchio. I have been working in the North End for over 40 years. I was born in Nusco (Avelino) Italy, and immigrated to East Boston with my mother and twin sister at the age of 12 in 1979.

I was introduced to the North End by my sister in-law Anna to a restaurant called Piccola Venezia on Salem Street. My mom started working there and I started working at Modern Pastry. The neighborhood made me feel like I was back in Italy. Surrounded by Italian speakers and friendly faces. Fast Forward to 1987, I was asked if I wanted to be a part of Frank Depesquale’s first original Trattoria IL Panino. This first restaurant was run by Frank and his wife Debbie. Working at little Panino is where I experienced the passion and love to give our customers an experience like no other by being an authentic Italian establishment.
