Ciao, miei amici io sono Joe!
Hi, my friends I'm Joe Lococo!
I was literally born into the restaurant business and a culture centered around delicious Italian cuisine. I'm the youngest of five children born to Sicilian parents in Tuscan Livorno. Our family immigrated to the U.S. in 1956 arriving at Buffalo, New York on the famous liner Andrea Doria. In those days, life in the Buffalo Italian community felt very similiar to our lifestyle in Calabria, from the local Italian farmer’s market owned by the Tulumello family to bocce ball in the park. And everywhere we went we were met with fresh, delicious Italian family-style cooking.

Many. many years later, and far from New York I've remained true to our traditional style of cooking. What sets LoCoco’s Cucina Rustica apart is our authentic Italian fare in the family/rustic-style style. Every dish is made with fresh, simple, flavorful ingredients, just as one would find in Italy.
Livorno sits within Tuscany, one Italy's best-known regions for culture, food and wine, architecture and history.
I put a great deal of focus on using local Sonoma County ingredients as much as possible, to provide a Northern Californian accent and ensure the freshest possible ingredients. In fact, it is common to frequently find nightly specials that include such as ingredients mushrooms that I even picked myself.
