Our story began in 1983 when Jerry Cirino first opened the doors to Cirino’s Bar & Grill, an Italian Restaurant in Nevada City, CA offering “time-honored” Italian recipes from the Cirino family kitchen. On any given day you can enjoy old-world tradition foods using only the freshest ingredients and experience our signature Italian dishes while celebrating what life is truly all about… sharing the table with family, friends, delicious food and drink. We invite you to come on in and join us. You may even discover what “will change your life”… our signature Cirino Bloody Mary.
Salute! The Cirino Family
