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. It was met with an "instant and outsize swoon." The Los Angeles Times gave it a four-star review, and the New York Times called it a "serious and impressive restaurant." [4]

Four months after the opening of the pizzeria, Osteria Mozza opened to similar acclaim. 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." [5] It was nominated as Best New Restaurant by the James Beard Foundation the year it opened, and was awarded a Michelin star in 2008. [6] Osteria Mozza maintained its Michelin star in the 2022 Michelin Guide for California. [7]

Osteria Mozza later opened restaurants in Newport Beach, California (Pizzeria Mozza, closed in October 2024), [8] and Singapore. The original Mozza location has since grown to include Mozza2Go and a third restaurant, Chi Spacca, which focuses on meats. [9]
