Having made a promise to her husband that their children would have an opportunity at the American Dream, Mamma Rosa arrived in New York City with her daughter and four sons in the spring of 1970.

This is the story of Mamma Rosa and her children...

Though the early years were a struggle, Mamma always had a way of turning the hardships into opportunities of instilling in her children core values through the lessons of life. Through chores and responsibilities, they learned the value of discipline, teamwork and commitment. They began working early on in their youth, and through the years gained much experience in the pizza industry in New York City. Then, in the summer of 1986, they opened their own pizzeria, Famous Famiglia, in the heart of New York City! In the years to follow, they opened several more pizzerias throughout New York City, winning awards with their quality and customer service standards. Hence, the Famous Famiglia pizza chain quickly became a leader in the New York pizza market and earned the title of "New York's Favorite Pizza."

Today, Famous Famiglia operates company-owned and franchised locations across a diverse mix of venues which include leading airports and transportation hubs, malls and shopping centers, colleges and universities, theme parks, hotels and casinos, stadiums and arenas, military bases, medical centers, motorways and in-line urban downtown locations. The Famous Famiglia brand currently operates in the United States, Mexico, Asia and Europe.

The Famous Famiglia story is one of triumph and a passion for the spirit of entrepreneurship. It is also one of a return to the very basic principles of the foodservice industry; serving a quality product, in an efficient and enthusiastic manner and in a clean and pleasant environment. The founders of the company, throughout the growth, it have had a consistent vision to instill this culture throughout the organization and, hence, Famous Famiglia has become one of the fastest growing pizza brands, and one of the most respected and admired leaders in the industry. The founders are fully committed to continuing on in this tradition.
