Buzzetta's Italian Cafe | Our Story
From Palermo to Chesterfield, one family's table
Executive Chef Lia Buzzetta and her son Tony — a mother-and-son team from Palermo, Sicily — built this cafe on over 40 years of St. Louis restaurant experience.
Sicilian roots
Our cooking traces back to Palermo, Sicily — where flavors, technique, and the spirit of hospitality were shaped long before we ever opened a restaurant.
Four decades in St. Louis
Before Buzzetta's, Lia and Tony spent over 40 years operating some of the finest restaurants in St. Louis. This cafe is their newest creation — and their most personal.
The food we're proud of
Our menu is built on authentic Sicilian flavors and handcrafted Italian favorites — served dine-in, carry out, or at a private party.
Recognition from the press
Feast Magazine and St. Louis Magazine both took notice when we opened, highlighting our atmosphere and the family behind the kitchen.
