Generations of service and hospitality...

When my great-grandfather Achilles first arrived in the United States at the turn of the twentieth century, he opened a small neighborhood Greek restaurant. The food was simple and fresh. A generation later, my grandfather Arcito continued this tradition by opening an Italian pizzeria in Rhode Island. After a tragic fire that destroyed the pizzeria in the seventies, my father began rebuilding. By the late eighties Archie's Tavern, as it was re-named, sat 400 guests and was renowned for serving its customers superior value and quality. The early nineties brought further change when we reassessed our opportunities and decided to move to Atlanta. As the fourth generation of restaurateurs in my family, we still believe that simple fresh ingredients teamed with value and sincere hospitality will enable us to continue our tradition and serve you for many years to come.

Federic Castelluci II

Or Mr. C, as most people call him, is a long time restaurateur. As he graduated from Boston University, his intention was to become a lawyer, however, when his father's restaurant burnt down in a tragic fire he was faced with a life changing decision. In order to support his family, he started the restaurant again from scratch. He worked day and night and many times slept in the booths of the restaurant to get it off the ground. After ten years, his hard work finally paid off. The restaurant became the largest steakhouse in Rhode Island, and he went on to open six other restaurants in the state. In 1996, he took his family and moved to Atlanta for better weather and a better business climate. Over the next six years, he opened and sold six Roasted Garlic restaurants. In 2003, the first Sugo opened in Roswell, GA. The concept design and culinary vision was a collaboration with his oldest son Frederic III, and his wife Nancy.
