From Naples to West 3rd Street
We bridge the gap between the Mediterranean and the Pacific. By combining imported Italian staples—like DOP San Marzano tomatoes and Buffalo Mozzarella—with the freshest seasonal produce from California’s local markets, we create a dining experience that is both authentic and uniquely Los Angeles.
"At Viva la Mamma, every guest is treated like family. We invite you to slow down, share a bottle of wine, and taste the passion in every bite."
