The Birth of “C.A.M.”
1972
What everyone knows today as “Rolly” began with an idea shared by Grandmother Luisao and Grandfather Pietro In 1972, they decided to bring to life the C.A.M. – Centro Amatori Musica, a place open late into the night that soon became a modest gathering spot and a true second home for local musicians. More than just a venue serving good food, it offered live music and a welcoming atmosphere — a place where people came together to share meals, melodies, and moments..
1973
The Birth of Restaurant “Rolly”
Over time, the Centro Amatori Musica naturally evolved into a restaurant. In 1973, the venue obtained its official municipal license and took on the name it still carries today: “Rolly”, a nickname inspired by Rolando, the youngest son of the family.
It remained — and still remains — a cherished meeting place for local guests and friends from all over the world.
A Family Gastronomic Tradition
The Family
Years of hard work and sacrifice never dimmed the spirit of Grandmother Luisa. After 1978, she courageously continued her dream on her own, guided by deep respect for her roots and her family. She passed on her values, knowledge, and passion to her children Mariella, Rolando, and Tullio — the Chef, who sadly passed away in 2015. This family gastronomic tradition, carried forward for more than half a century, has been carefully preserved through the years. The setting may have changed, but the soul remains the same. Inspired by this story, Restaurant Rolly continues its journey as a family-run establishment, built on the daily selection of fresh ingredients, a warm and convivial atmosphere, and a shared culinary ambition. In 2005, the pizzeria joined the project, completing a vision that began many years ago — and that continues to live on today.
