Restaurant Chef

Meet The Chef
Nello Gioia

Named for the Piedmont city in Northern Italy, Ristorante Bergamo (Reese-tor-on-tay Bear-gah-moe) has been a destination for true Italian foodies since its much-anticipated opening in 1996. For over 23 years, Chef/Owner and native Bergamasco Nello Gioia has built a stellar reputation with his modern interpretation of classic Northern Italian cuisine. After a career as a textile chemist and sales rep took him around the globe, a stint as General Manager of his brother Elio's Key West restaurant, Bubbles, convinced Nello to follow his own dream of creating a modern Italian restaurant. Using fresh ingredients, homegrown organic herbs and an intrinsic knowledge of authentic flavors, Chef Nello has made his mark on the Southern culinary scene and beyond. His love of all tastes and culinary experiences from his native country make Ristorante Bergamo an oasis of European sensibilities in the charming city of Greenville, SC.

A great way to impress the family!

Posted By Ad Diva from Greenville

I recently hosted a gathering of 12 family members and friends for a much anticipated dinner at Ristorante Bergamo. Our diners hailed from Hawaii, Alaska and Washington, DC and Detroit and Napa, CA. As expected, Nello didn't fail to WOW us all with his creativity, presentation and most of all, taste. Call me biased, but I always know whether I dine with family, friends or clients, it will always be a special meal. Nello- Thanks for being the exclamation point for fine Downtown Greenville dining for over 23 years!
