Joe Bastianich and Lidia Bastianich are the distinctive forces behind an eclectic group of critically acclaimed, unanimously adored restaurants.
B&B Hospitality Group's (B&BHG) flagship is Babbo Ristorante e Enoteca, an award-winning Greenwich Village restaurant where we have seamlessly combined traditional Italian principles with intelligent culinary adventure since 1998. During the intervening decade, B&BHG opened nearly a dozen restaurants in the New York area including Lupa, Esca, Casa Mono, Tarry Lodge, and Del Posto, the only four star Italian restaurant in New York.
In partnership with Los Angeles phenom Nancy Silverton, B&BHG brought its distinctive approach to food and drink to the West Coast in the form of Osteria Mozza and Pizzeria Mozza. Nancy's beloved pizzas have spread southward—to Newport Beach and San Diego—and westward—to Singapore and Hong Kong—exciting palates around the globe.
In 2007, B&BHG brought the flavors of Italy to a desert oasis. Today, Las Vegas visitors can enjoy four distinct B&BHG dining experiences: Carnevino, OTTO Enoteca Pizzeria, B&B Ristorante, and B&B Burger & Beer, where diners can enjoy a nightcap on a patio overlooking the Strip.
B&BHG prides itself on its status as an industry leader in sustainability. Our restaurants optimize operations by incorporating green initiatives including: food waste composting, utilizing alternative fuel source and corporate-wide participation in Meatless Monday and a no bottled water policy.
What started as a small cadre of downtown Manhattan staples has expanded to an international fleet of neighborhood favorites. Each restaurant offers its own culinary identity but has a signature combination of thoughtful and memorable food, intelligent wine lists, and an emphasis on living life to its absolute fullest.
