Food
East Mamma, opened in 2015 in Paris's 11th arrondissement near Bastille, was the first Big Mamma trattoria. Chef Giuseppe and his pizzaioli team prepare Italian classics like spaghetti all'amatriciana, ossobuco alla milanese and Neapolitan pizzas with mortadella or nduja, using fresh produce sourced from Italian producers. The Italian wine list is curated by sommelier Albi. Expect a bistro atmosphere, a terrace, and options for brunch, group meals or private events.

What people say
"East Mamma was easily one of the highlights of my dining experience and absolutely lived up to the hype. The restaurant has a cozy Italian charm with warm décor and a lively atmosphere that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a neighborhood trattoria in Italy. We started with a glass of white wine, which paired perfectly with the meal. The truffle pasta was rich, creamy, and packed with earthy truffle flavor without being overwhelming. The spicy sausage pizza was another standout, featuring a perfectly crisp crust, quality ingredients, and just the right amount of heat. To finish, the pistachio chocolate profiterole was decadent and indulgent—the perfect sweet ending to an excellent meal. Service was friendly, attentive, and efficient throughout the evening, adding to the overall experience. Every dish we ordered was a hit, and the quality of the food justified the popularity of this spot. If you’re visiting Paris and can secure a reservation through Resy, it’s absolutely worth it. 5/5 – A fantastic Italian meal with great food, welcoming service, and a charming atmosphere."
