History

Nazzareno Tamboli Came to the Mid-South in 1909 as a part of a migration of folks who later became known as the Delta Italians. The Delta Italians came in search of fertile land and good jobs. Nazzareno didn’t take to picking cotton, and soon returned to Italy's Adriatic coast. His son Ruggero (Roy), however, stayed in Mississippi hoping for better luck.

Many Delta Italians earned a living growing vegetables for market and cultivated an industry of "truck farming," better known today as "market gardening".

Miles Tamboli picked up where the Delta Italians left off; growing seasonal produce for the farmers market. After a visit to the Tamboli homeland, Miles started making pasta and other Italian goods to take to market. Business took off, and now the Tamboli’s are proud to share their love for fresh Italian-inspired foods.

Our Values

“At Tamboli’s Pasta & Pizza, our number one goal is to feed you well. We make our pasta, dough, and sauces in house, we keep our menu focused so we can do it consistently, and we use local ingredients where they make the food better.

Feeding people well also means cultivating a lively, nourishing space. We’re here to have a good time. Our building has been in our family for decades, and when you eat with us, you’re at the family table. ”
