Business owner information

Dino F.

Business Owner

At age 16, Chef Dino started making pizzas and lasagnas for his family and friends. When neighbors kept coming back for his traditional Italian cuisine, Chef Dino realized he had a special gift. Since that first "restaurant" in his mother's kitchen, Chef Dino has cooked all over the world and settled in Huntington Beach, CA. Once he had his own kitchen, there was no looking back. He had three restaurants at one point, Capone's Italian Cucina, Mona Lisa Cucina, and his newest called The Black Trumpet Bistro Tapas & Wine bar specializing in Mediterranean cuisine and Spanish tapas (small plates), all located in the heart of Huntington Beach, CA. Once Black Trumpet relocated to its larger location in April of 2018, Chef Dino sold Mona Lisa Cucina and decided to focus on the other two locations. Chef Dino hopes to take your palette on a journey to exquisite flavors through his experience and mastery in the kitchen!
