Our Story

How It All Began

How It All Began

Our story began 17 years ago when life brought us to San Antonio and the restaurant industry connected us in the Tri-City area. Working as colleagues, we became friends before our paths took us in different directions. During that time apart and subsequently finding ourselves on the same road again, the realization that we were more than just friends followed and we married in 2020. We live happily in the Schertz area with our son, 5 dogs, 3 fish tanks, 2 parakeets, and Fang the hamster.

Why Grampie's?

My grandfather, whom I called Grampie, was the first child born in the U.S. to his Italian immigrant parents. He spent most of his life in Southern Illinois working as a gas utilityman. Growing up, I had a very special connection to Grampie. He taught me how to have fun, work hard, honor family and appreciate the simpler parts of life.
