The Story of Chianti South

In 1980, Chianti Restaurant opened in Newburgh, N.Y., a city on the Hudson River. The owners, Angelo and Marie Bertolozzi, named it after the great wine region in Tuscany where Angelo was born. They operated the restaurant for over seventeen years during which time it became a favorite with local residents and visitors.

The recipe for the success of Chianti Restaurant was a blend of delicious meals, an extensive wine list, friendly and courteous service, and moderate prices. This combination has won Chianti numerous awards, including six recognitions as the best Italian restaurant in the Hudson Valley and three straight prestigious awards of Excellence from the Wine Spectator magazine.

Angelo and Marie got to know and love the Myrtle Beach area through vacations here and finally found the spot they wanted for Chianti South. They are happy to have become an important part of the Little River community where they can serve the same fine Italian food to local residents as well as visitors.
