Sophia and her mother moved to to the United States with her husband and four children in 1960 from Catania Italy. She hoped to find a better life in the U.S.A. and one day her dream came true.

She opened a small pizzeria in upstate New York in 1980, with her son John where customers cane in droves to watch her make her homemade pizza dough. After successful years, John set his eyes to Atlanta to expand his mother’s business into a full Italian style eatery.

And now stands Sophia’s Italian Restaurant, boasting some of mama Sophia’s famous family recipes. Together, John, his wife Alexis and daughter Sophia continue Mama Sophia’s legacy right here in Lawrenceville.
