My Birthday Celebration at Siena Restaurant with great friends...
Anthony and Chris Tarro own and manage both Siena Restaurant, located in Providence RI, and Siena Cucina · Enoteca, located in East Greenwich. I met Anthony Tarro while he was attending Hendricken High School through some mutual friends.
Located in the heart of Providence's Federal Hill, Siena Restaurant was opened in 2005 and features authentic Tuscan cuisine in a warm and lively atmosphere. While the brothers were raised in Warwick, R.I., their family has deep roots in the Italian-American community on Federal Hill making it the perfect location for their first restaurant.
Anthony's passion for food began at home watching his mother prepare meals for the family. He began working in food service in high school and has not stopped since. He is a graduate of the RI School of Design - Culinary Arts Program and earned his bachelor's degree in Food Service Management from Johnson and Wales University. He has studied Tuscan cuisine in Bologna, Italy.
Anthony has spent 20 years mastering his specialty of Italian cuisine. His accomplishments include being honored as chef of the year by the RI chapter of the American Culinary Federation and acting as chef for President George H. Bush on a visit to Rhode Island.
Although I did not dine in Siena on this evening, the food at Siena is also outstanding! I stopped in to see my friend Siena, who is a bartender there (and no relation to the owners I might add), she surprised Me with this wonderful dessert! Just what I needed, more dessert! It's going to be a long week at the Gym!
Thank you for a wonderful & delicious birthday surprise!
