Osteria Mozza is a Michelin-starred Italian restaurant in Hollywood, California. [1] [2] [3]
In 2007, Nancy Silverton partnered with New York chef Mario Batali and his frequent collaborator Joseph Bastianich to open an Italian restaurant, Osteria Mozza. Reminiscent of the evolution of La Brea Bakery, a pizzeria, Pizzeria Mozza, opened in an adjoining space prior to the opening of the main restaurant.
Osteria Mozza later opened restaurants in Newport Beach, California (Pizzeria Mozza, closed in October 2024), [4] Singapore, and Georgetown. [5] The original Mozza location has since grown to include Mozza2Go and a third restaurant, Chi Spacca, which focuses on meats. [6]
The Los Angeles Times gave it a four-star review, and the New York Times called it a "serious and impressive restaurant." [7] It was nominated as Best New Restaurant by the James Beard Foundation the year it opened, and was awarded a Michelin star in 2008. [8] Osteria Mozza maintained its Michelin star in the 2025 Michelin Guide for California. [9]
Although the restaurant's entire menu was widely praised, Silverton's interpretation of antipasti as a Mozzarella bar won particular recognition, with Zagat's noting that she had "perfected the art of cheese." [10]
