The Birth of a Culinary Icon

In 1998, restaurateur Lydia Shire and her husband, chef Jody Adams, opened the doors to Toscanini, fulfilling their dream of creating a restaurant that would showcase their love for Italian cuisine.

Lydia, a seasoned restaurateur with a keen eye for detail, envisioned a space that was both inviting and elegant. Jody, a culinary virtuoso with a deep understanding of Italian culinary traditions, was determined to present authentic Italian dishes with a modern twist.

A Menu that Embraces Tradition and Innovation

The menu at Toscanini is a testament to Jody Adams' culinary artistry. Each dish is carefully crafted, paying homage to the flavors of Italy while incorporating contemporary techniques and seasonal ingredients.
