Every dish has a story that starts long before it reaches your table. Ours begins in Italy, with the artisans behind the ingredients that define RPM Italian.

Our team maintains deep relationships with these partners, complemented by regular sourcing trips to study their time-honored methods and uncompromising commitment to quality.

Over the coming weeks, we'll take you on a journey from the cellars of Parma to the estates of Tuscany, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at the traditions, techniques, and partnerships that shape our menu.

We'll also be featuring a limited-time special menu highlighting these standout ingredients at our Chicago and DC locations.

This is Sourcing the Best of Italy.

Featuring our signature:
-Prosciutto Service
-Maine Lobster Caprese
-Prosciutto Tortelloni
-Roasted Bufala Mozzarella
-Gnudi
-Vin Santo Wine
