Our Roots in Food and Family

Our Roots in Food and Family

The 808 Bistro was inspired by chef Salvatore Cucullo Jr., whose passion for food started in his grandfather’s pizzeria and family restaurant. After training at the Culinary Institute of America and working at New York’s Café des Artistes, Salvatore brings years of experience to every dish. His focus is on fresh, quality ingredients and traditional recipes that honor his heritage. “ I’m very passionate about food and believe as a chef that I’m never more important than my ingredients”- Salvatore

Chef & Owner - a Chef Without Borders

Chef Salvatore Cucullo Jr. has spent his entire life in the restaurant world. His hands on experience. His top level training at The Culinary Institute of America, and his family background-rooted in Italian cuisine made for a perfect recipe. The 808 Bistro’s menu is built with an Italian foundation. On top of it is Chef Salvatore’s creative mix of culinary expertise and a sensitive finger.

The constantly-changing menu shows culinary innovation beyond just appetizers and entrees. The pasta section features homemade offerings that pay a loving homage to Cucullo’s background with Nana’s gnocchi and spinach and cheese Cannelloni just to name a couple. Pastas are also available as whole wheat or gluten free-one indication that the menu at The 808 Bistro, apart from being creative and sensational, also pays attention to today’s dietary concerns.
