Cooking is more than a passion for Luigi, namesake and owner of Luigi's Italian Sandwiches & Calzones food truck, it's part of who he is. He was born in Florence, Italy, and came to the United States at a young age. He spent years in the restaurant industry, including working at his grandparent's pizza shop, until he decided he wanted to spend more time with his family. That's when he decided to start his own food truck in 2022 where he offers authentic Italian cuisine to Fresno County. 

Luigi

Luigi brings his family's rich culinary heritage to his menu and utilizes high quality and local ingredients. He makes his pasta, dough for the calzones, sauce and meatballs from scratch, prepping everything before he sets out with his truck. It's a team effort to run the truck, with family and friends helping serve up these delicious meals. 

You'll want to try a little bit of everything from the menu. Local favorites include the chicken fettucine alfredo and the meatball sandwich, both are cheesy, creamy and delicious! Be sure to also try one of their calzones. The combination calzone is packed with cheese, salami, pepperoni, beef, onion and bell pepper, and served up with homemade marinara sauce.
