The Grossi family originated in Patrica, Italy; a small village 43 miles south east of Rome in the heart of wine country. In 1955 the Grossi's moved to America.
The Grossi's arrived in Michigan and their oldest son Egidio "G" attended college and met his future wife, Paula Rinaldi. While still in college, G began learning the restaurant business and managed a local pizzeria in Flint. In 1975, after completing college G and Paula were married. In 1977 they opened their first restaurant in Bridgeport, Pompeii's. Later the same year, after a successful start, the couple opened daVinci's here in Frankenmuth. Now over 40 years later the Grossi's look forward to serving the community for years to come.
