History

On a mission to find the American Dream, the Rinella and Lombardo families immigrated from Sicily and Rome, Italy to the United States. After making a stop in Manhattan, New York, they eventually settled in Portland, Oregon. The business was started in 1914 by Frank Rinella, Sr. His son, Frank Rinella, Jr., carried on the tradition. With only one truck at the time, David Rinella took over in the early 1980's for his father. His wife, Cindy, joined him in 1986 when they married.
