Business Description
purchased Sotto Mare. Rich brought with him a long history in San Francisco restaurants, including stints at Caesar’s, Jovanello’s, Maye’s Oyster House and the California Culinary Academy. Employed by Sotto Mare under previous ownership, Ria had received her North Beach restaurant In 2014, the Azzolino family (Rich and his wife Laura, and their children Vito and Ria) education well before the family took the place over. Rich and Laura were both born and raised in North Beach, San Francisco’s “Little Italy,” and with Sotto Mare they have created a place where friends, neighbors and worldwide visitors can congregate to indulge in the freshest seafood, good wine, laughter and great stories shared. If the timing is right, you might even hear an old story from Richie himself.
