SCALI RISTORANTE Authentic Italian Cuisine

join the family at Scalis
Our History
The story of Scali Ristorante began when Antonio Scali decided to move his family from the southern Italian village of Anoia Superiore, in the region of Calabria, to the United States in search of a more prosperous life.
His son Frank knew from the beginning food service was his calling. He began his career as a dishwasher in a north side restaurant. He learned the restaurant business from the ground up in several local Italian restaurants. There he met his wife Judy who grew up in Columbus but whose family was from Alvito, a town in the central Italy region of Lazio.
Frank felt Columbus still needed a family style Italian restaurant. In 1993 he opened Scali Ristorante in suburban Reynoldsburg, Ohio. The focus was authentic Italian dishes, prepared by Mama Scali and the rest of the family, Father Antonio, Frank and wife Judy. Their dedication to quality ingredients, service, and creating a family atmosphere brought the faithful back time and time again.
It's this foundation that Scali Ristorante continues with into the future. Striving to be a premier destination for quality Italian cuisine and a destination where you are part of the family.
