Lagattuta founded Enrico Biscotti bakery, featuring bread and biscotti, in 1993. He had previously been an account executive with Lucent Technologies. A few years later, the offerings were expanded to include pizzas and cappuccino. Owner Lagattuta offers an occasional class in bread baking.
In 2003, a second location was opened in Shadyside neighborhood. Unlike the original bakery/cafe, the Shadyside location is more of a restaurant.
In 2010, a third location opened in Highland Park neighborhood. The unintentional grand opening occurred during the February 9–10, 2010, North American blizzard, with the cafe serving as a soup kitchen for the snowed-in neighbors.
