OUR
STORY

ESTABLISHED 1993

For more than 30 years, our family has been
serving Northwest Ohio with great food,
great people, and a commitment to community.

OUR BEGINNING

Where it All Began

In 1993, Jim Rivello opened the doors to his first McDonald's
restaurant with a simple belief: great people, quality food,
and strong communities create something truly lasting

What started as one restaurant and a small team has grown
into eight locations across Northwest Ohio- but our
commitment to exceptional service and local families has
never changed. 

A Legacy of Growth

OUR BEGINNING

Where It All Began 

In 1993, Jim Rivello opened the doors to his first McDonald’s restaurant with a simple belief: great people, quality food, and strong communities create something truly lasting.

 

What started as one restaurant and a small team has grown into eight locations across Northwest Ohio—but our commitment to exceptional service and local families has never changed.

 

From the very beginning, we’ve been more than just a place to eat. We’ve been a place to grow, connect, and make a difference.
