In 1957, Val and Zena Weiler operated the Campus Fruit Market in Lincoln, Nebraska. It was clear to them that their business would soon be eclipsed by the large supermarkets springing up across Lincoln. The landmark which had stood for a dozen years, had to go. In its place, armed with three dozen pizza pans, a recipe that had been in Mrs. Weiler s family for years, and a generous amount of trepidation, they decided to open a pizza business. They took in $60 their first day, and as the restaurant s reputation grew, patrons began to gather and watch through the window as the pizzas were made. They would stand in line for an hour or more to sample the pizza and pasta specialties created in the original restaurant. There was just one location then and no trip to the star city was complete without stopping to eat at Valentino s! About three years after the 1971 purchase of Valentino s by Tony and Ron Messineo, members of the Messineo and Alesio families carefully formulated plans to expand into additional locations. 60 years later Valentino s is still going strong with over 30 locations across Nebraska. Although we ve expanded our menu a lot, we still maintain the principles and dedication that made that little Italian restaurant on Holdrege a Nebraska legend. Uncle Nino making pasta.
