Pietro’s is a family-owned and operated restaurant located in the central valley, the heart of wine country. Pietro’s originated in 1956 in Vacaville, California. The patriarch of the Murdaca family, Pietro Murdaca, opened the original location on Cernon Street shortly after immigrating from Southern Italy. In 1985, Pietro and his son Jim came to the valley to open Pietro’s of Lodi. The Murdaca family remains committed to three guiding principles; quality food, customer service, and respect for employees.

Born from a family legacy that began in 1956, Pietro’s has always been about more than just great food...it’s about gathering, tradition, and a little bit of magic at the table. From Pietro Murdaca’s original vision, to Jim and Pete’s expansion in Lodi and the next generation carrying it forward, that spirit now finds a new expression in Jimmy’s.Set in the original Pietro’s space, Jimmy’s is our love letter to old-school Italian-American dining - reimagined for late nights and lively company. Think cold martinis, sizzling steaks, dim lights, and a soundtrack that lingers just as long as you do. It’s nostalgic, a little funky, and built for those who believe the best nights don’t end early.Come for the history. Stay for the experience.

    Jimmy's is an absolute gem! We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end celebrating my mother's birthday. The food was delicious, the service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. They have a fantastic variety of starters and the steaks are truly outstanding. They offer a complimentary caviar bump and glass of sparking wine upon arrival. Its truly a great place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Can't wait to come back!

    Had a wonderful birthday celebration at Oxford. We were greeted and seated in a very comfortable spot. Service was impeccable with great suggestions and coordination of our meal choices. The oysters were creamy with a little bit of spice in the sauce served with them. We enjoyed the tender lamb shank that was easy to come off the bone. It was so yummy and served with some flavorful rice pilaf and an arugula salad. All in all, another wonderful time at the Oxford.
