Cafe Lazio - NY

The Chef is Adriano DiMario, a native of Rome. Chef Adriano DiMario, who has been cooking professionally for roughly 40 years, considers himself "retired" while cooking at his intimate little restaurant. DiMario opened Cafe Lazio in April 2007. Open for lunch and dinner from Monday through Friday, Chef DiMario cooks what he wants focusing on Italian and Italian-American classics and some of his own "special" creations, all done with skill, knowledge, heart and generosity. DiMario's early cooking days started in his native country of Italy. When he came to North America, he initially moved to Mexico, where he started the restaurant, Mama Mia, in San Miguel de Allende in the 1970's. While cooking there, DiMario cooked for the President of Mexico as well as a visiting Queen Elizabeth.

From Mexico, DiMario moved to the United States, specifically to Connecticut, where he eventually opened a couple of restaurants, that became quite popular in the 80's and 90's, in particular, The Bridge Cafe in Westport and Spagone in Ridgefield. His diners there included Martha Stewart, amongst others. DiMario sold those restaurants and left Connecticut a few years ago to retire to a farm in Washington County. Ever the cook, he was lured into starting another restaurant up here, this time in Hudson Falls, on the site of what is now El Mexicano. Unfortunately for DiMario, he was injured in an automobile accident and had to give that restaurant up. After some time for recovery, he came back up to open The Cafe Lazio in its current location.
