Our Story
Every family has a Josephine: the one who taught you to taste, to enjoy, to stay a while.
For Marco Gagliardi and Anthony Dragotto, she was the grandmother at the center of everything. Two grandmothers on different timelines, both named Josephine, both with tables that filled themselves and doors that never quite closed. They cooked without performance but with precision. Their meals were simple and incredibly alive.
Josephine is not a memory. She is a presence. This restaurant is a continuation of what she gave to the world, not just the food but the feeling of being known and arriving exactly where you were meant to be.
Marco cooks. Anthony takes care of you. Together they built a place that feels the way her house felt.
