Our Story
Biagio Events and Catering has deep roots in the Chicagoland area. As a part of the Mangia Beve Restaurant Group, we have been serving the freshest and best quality food since 1957. In fact, our legendary pizza was the first one served at Chicago Fest (now Taste of Chicago) back in the 1970s. Today, Biagio is proud to be the premier events and catering company in Chicago and throughout the suburbs.
