Andrea Bullo, Restaurateur, Owner.

Originally from Venice, Italy, Andrea’s passion for culinary and hospitality businesses has brought him to the United States. His early career was spent mastering every imaginable facet of luxury service operations, and the corresponding values and standards necessary for success.

Andrea began working at the prominent Venice restaurant, Do Forni e Antico Pignolo, from 1979-81. He continued his career in the hotel industry at Cortina D’Ampezzo and 5-star hotels, such as Londra Palace, Metropole, Danieli and Excelsior, in Lido. These diverse experiences gave him the perspective to be an effective personnel manager with a high-level of empathy, but also a direct approach to discipline. Andrea’s successful management style is confirmed by the unusually low staff turnover in the operations he has managed.

In 2001, he opened his second Restaurant, Moonshadows in Malibu, with his longtime friends, Rodolfo Costella and Franco Simplicio. His mission was to transform the old diamond in the rough into a “chic and casual” Malibu beach restaurant, featuring a patio bar called Blue Lounge. The restaurant has been highly acclaimed and has received awards from many renowned institutions, such as Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence (2006-2011), The Michelin Award and The Best of City Search. Moonshadows has also been featured in several top magazines and as Travel Channel’s “sexiest beach restaurant and bar in the world.”

This year, Andrea celebrates his 20th successful year at Moonshadows. With his hands-on management, leadership and creative partnership, he aspires to not only be a culinary trendsetter, but also a pioneer within the restaurant industry.
