Nizza La Bella is a casual, reasonably priced, neighborhood bistro that features the lively French and Italian Riviera inspired cuisine of the city of Nice. We serve simple rustic style comfort food in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. The heart of our restaurant is the kitchen’s massive imported French wood-fired oven, where pizzas, roasts, seafood, fish, gratins, desserts and hearth breads emerge from its fire-lit glow. The zinc top bar is the convivial center of the restaurant offering artisan cocktails, aperitifs, spirits, cordials, wines and beers.
The cuisine at Nizza features many authentic renditions of Nicois specialities such as Pizza Provencal Feu de Bois, Socca, Moules Provencale, Bouillabaisse, Salade Nicoise, Anchoiade, Fougasse, and Epinards Nicois. We also offer many traditional French bistro favorites such as Soupe a l’Oignion, Frites, Salade Lyonnaise, Steak-Frites, Poulet Roti Feu de Bois, Poisson Feu de Bois and Macaroni au Gratin.
Our wood-fired pizzas run the gamut from traditional French style pizzas such as the “La Reina”, La Provencale, La Verdura and La Bouillaibassa, to a more classic Italian style such as La Napolitaine and La Bianca al Quattro Formaggio i Funghi and, in the tradition of New York Style pizzas of yore, we offer the Lombardi, La Festa San Gennaro and La Grande Bouffe.
Our desserts, which are entirely house-made, feature classic French renditions of Chocolate Mousse, Creme Brulee, Pain Perdu au Chocolate, Croquant au Fruits and our signature Provencale Galette au Pommes, Miele, et Thym a La Mode (baked-to-order in our wood-fired oven). We produce our own Fougasse baked daily, pizza and buns, hand-made fresh mozzarella, sausages and meatballs. We hand-cut and double fry our frites and use the time-honored slow cooking methods to produce authentic versions of Daube Nicois, Coq au Vin and Cassoulet.
