A serial restaurateur, Joey Maggiore is embarking on his most personal venture yet: The Sicilian Butcher. A tribute to his late father, the restaurant celebrates his Italian heritage and the foods he would cook for Maggiore as a child.

“He gave his life for Italian food and culture,” Maggiore said of his father. In every location of The Sicilian Butcher — there are currently three in Arizona — there will be a picture of Maggiore’s father, a loving tribute to the man who taught Maggiore everything, including how to cook.
