Venice, Italy-based DalMoros Fresh Pasta To Go is opening its first U.S. location in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Founded in 2012 to offer made-from-scratch pasta to customers on the go, DalMoros also serves tiramisu, fountain drinks, beer and wine, according to a press release.

"Coming from an Italian heritage, we've always had a love for Italian cuisine, especially fresh pasta," David Caruso, franchisee of DalMoros St. Petersburg, said in the release. "Luckily, we were connected with Gabriele Dal Moro, whose fresh pasta to go concept has attracted thousands of people to his pasta shop in Venice, Italy.

"It is the first of its kind and truly a revolutionary way to enjoy fresh pasta without the need to sit down at a formal restaurant. We are very proud to be able to bring this fabulous idea to the United States and finally open. Everyone loves fresh pasta, but typically it is hard to find outside of the kitchen or a gourmet restaurant — this changes that."

Along with Caruso, DalMoros St. Pete's team includes General Manager and Head Chef Alberto Buniato, who hails from Milan, Italy. The team plans to open additional DalMoros in Southwest, Florida, in the future and eventually the rest of the United States.

In addition to the St. Petersburg restaurant opening in spring, DalMoros has locations in Italy, Canada and Spain and will soon open in Singapore, Barcelona and Mexico.
