Celebrating 30 Years in Business in Downtown Walnut
Creek - |
 Max
Wolfe, owner and accomplished chef, opened
the doors of Maximillian in downtown Walnut Creek in
1977. He changed the restaurant’s name in 1995
to Massimo
Ristorante - giving it a new look and a new menu.
The interior was remodeled to reflect a warm Italian
style ambience using light shaded woods, neoclassical
columns and accented with a complementary color palette
of avocado, off black and copper. The menu changed
from French to Modern Italian cuisine. And after 30
years, Max has successfully maintained his long-standing
reputation for quality ingredients, superb cuisine
and professional service!
Career Highlights: Rainbow Room and Rainbow Grill
in New York City, Four Seasons Restaurant in New York
City and successfully managed restaurants in Hilton
Head Island, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia in
the seventies. |

- Creating
New and Innovative Seasonal Menus - |
 Executive
Chef Roberto Rodriguez, a graduate of the California
Culinary Academy, enjoys his work at Massimo
and is always happy to cater to a guest’s
special menu request, dietary need, or even provide
a quick cooking lesson once in a while!
He became Executive Chef of Massimo six years ago. Since then, Chef Roberto
and Max Wolfe have collaborated to create new and innovative seasonal menus.
Chef Roberto is proud to say that everything is prepared from scratch, “in-house”,
using the freshest ingredients, produce, prime meats and fish. And gladly reports
that Massimo Cuisine has been trans-fat free for the last 4 years!
Career Highlights: Began cooking at Old Venice in San Diego at the age of 16,
followed by work as a line cook at Moose’s, The Pan Pacific Hotel and Peninsula
Hotel in Los Angeles. Then as a Sous Chef at One Market, Red Herring, Rose Pistola/Rose’s
Café and at Stars Restaurant with Chef Jeremiah Tower. |
