About Big Mamma Group

Big Mamma Group is an Italian restaurant company founded in 2015 by Tigrane Seydoux and Victor Lugger, with one simple dream: changing people's lives with food.

We serve 100% homemade dishes, made with ingredients sourced directly from small Italian producers — think Prosciutto di Parma from Stefano Borchini, San Marzano tomatoes from Paolo Ruggiero, flour from Antimo Caputo… and the list goes on. Everything is served in jaw-dropping spaces, at fair prices, and always with a huge smile.

From our very first trattoria in Paris to over 30 locations across Europe today, our Squadra has grown to more than 2,200 talents, and the family keeps growing — with new restaurants opening in 2025.

Where to find us:

🇫🇷 France: 8 trattorias in Paris + 1 food market, Lille, Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille

🇮🇹 Italy: 1 osteria in Milan

🇪🇸 Spain: 3 trattoria in Madrid and 1 osteria in Barcelona

🇬🇧 UK: 6 trattorias in London, Manchester, Birmingham

🇧🇪 Belgium: Brussels

🇩🇪 Germany: Munich, Berlin, Hamburg

🇲🇨 Monaco: Monte-Carlo

We also launched Napoli Gang, our digital food brand, in 2020 — delivering the same crazy love for Italian food straight to your door.

But food is only half the story.

Our real mission? Changing people’s lives with food.

That means putting people first — guests and team members alike. We believe hospitality can be a real career, not just a student job. We’re committed to building an inclusive and inspiring workplace where talents grow, evolve, and shape the future of the industry.

In 2023, we became a proud B-Corp, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and human-driven growth.

Big Mamma is not just a restaurant group.

It’s a movement made of passion, purpose, and a lot of pasta.
