In the highly saturated landscape of Italian cuisine in Southern California, La Parolaccia Osteria has set itself apart by sticking to tradition. Since 2006, the Procaccini family has served the Long Beach community a taste of homestyle Roman cooking with authentic family dishes that represent owner Stefano Procaccini’s Italian upbringing.
Now, after their recent nomination for “Best Chef: California” from the James Beard Foundation, Stefano and his son Michael Procaccini are set on continuing to offer customers honest, simple and delicious food. The James Beard Foundation recognizes restaurants and chefs for their exceptional talent and achievements in the culinary arts.
