New downtown Carson City restaurant Mangia Tutto to open in July
Owners of Mangia Tutto, a new Italian pizzeria and ristorante that will occupy the former D'Vine Wines space located at 200 North Stewart Street, said they plan to open in July 2018 at the corner of Musser and Stewart streets in downtown Carson City.
Richard Bragiel and Catherine Rolewicz said the new restaurant will feature a number of traditional Italian cuisine favorites, specializing in authentic Chicago style deep dish and thin crust pizza. A full service bar will also be available to patrons.
Bragiel is no stranger to the restaurant industry, having owned and operated a Chicago pizzeria back in the 1990s as well as quick service fast food restaurants in Las Vegas. He also spent years as a fine dining waiter, line and banquet chef, restaurant manager, and catering coordinator.
Bragiel has either consulted on or opened restaurants in six U.S. states.
His wife, Rolewicz, is a retired Chicago Police Detective currently employed with the Washoe County Sheriff's Office.
The couple, who have lived in Northern Nevada for about two years, are Chicago natives who saw the need to fill a niche in the local market by opening a neighborhood-style restaurant.
"There are many quality restaurants in and around Carson City," Bragiel said. "However, we found ourselves looking for that neighborhood pizzeria and Italian restaurant with the variety of fresh offerings like Nonna used to make."
The couple said they are excited about becoming part of Carson City's small town fabric by sharing aromas, tastes and flavors with others.
"We aspire to become part of family traditions and celebrations by supporting the growth and prosperity of the business district of Carson City," they said. "We love living in Carson City and look forwarded to meeting and sharing with those we have yet to have had the pleasure."
The restaurant's name, Mangia Tutto, means "eat everything" in Italian and just about everything Italian will be found in the 2,600 square-foot build that will feature 1,700 square feet of restaurant and bar space with seating for about 80 patrons.
Bragiel said Mangia Tutto will boast pizza dough, soups, sauces, salad dressings, Italian sausages, salads, sandwiches, and a variety of entrees. The owners said their idea is to share their childhood memories with Carson City.
"Mangia Tutto will mimic the numerous neighborhood pizzerias and restaurants found throughout the Chicagoland area," Bragiel said. "All entrees will be prepared from scratch on site from original recipes using the finest of ingredients. The Italian sausage will be made fresh locally from our recipe."
The crown jewel of Mangia Tutto, he said, will be its signature Chicago deep dish pizza.
"Unless you have eaten a deep dish pizza in Chicago from Uno, Due, Lou Malnati’s or Genos East, you are in for a special treat," Bragiel said.
Mangia Tutto is now hiring, he said, with applications now being accepted for all positions. Interested persons can apply online at mangiatuttopizzeria.com.
