Real food, honestly sourced.
We started Nicola's because we wanted to eat the kind of Italian food we grew up with. Our sourcing program is still being built with our suppliers. Below is the direction we are working toward — we will publish specific origins, certifications, and claims only once they are documented and verified.
What we're working toward
Sourcing standards in development
We are writing our supplier specifications now, and we will publish each standard once it is documented and verified.
Cooked in-house
Our kitchens are designed to slice, grill, and finish food in-house rather than reheat pre-made trays.
Extra virgin olive oil
Olive oil is central to our recipes. Specific origin and pressing details will be published once suppliers are contracted.
Tomato-forward sauces
Our sauce program is built around slow-simmered tomato recipes developed in test kitchen.
Simple ingredient lists
Our goal is short, recognizable ingredient lists across the menu.
Fresh bread program
Focaccia and piada are part of our bread program. Baking schedules will be confirmed at store opening.
