Partners Matt Kelly and Josh “Skinny” DeCarolis are proud to offer Mothers & Sons, a trattoria in downtown Durham featuring regional Italian food with seasonal sensibility. DeCarolis introduces the first restaurant in the South to focus on fatta a mano—handmade pasta.

JOSH "SKINNY" DECAROLIS

Mothers & Sons comes from the closeness DeCarolis experienced amongst Italian families such as his own–especially between mothers and sons–often centered around cooking traditions and the dinner table. We look forward to welcoming you to our table.
