Andrew Simmons and Wayne Stadler acquired Mamma Rosa’s Italian restaurant in January 2020.
The two, which cofounded a restaurant delivery service startup called Orange Crate, had learned through social media the restaurant’s owner, Mindy Arbaca, was planning on closing the beloved restaurant’s doors and quickly convinced her to sell it to them.
The two took ownership and reopened under the name Mamma Ramona’s, spending the next couple of years learning how to operate a restaurant while navigating through a pandemic.
