Obicà
Davella Studios was retained by OBICÀ, to bring the “world’s first mozzarella bar” to NYC by assisting in the design of its flagship restaurant. This Romanstyle restaurant, with a 120-seat dining room, places a large emphasis on eating as much mozzarella cheese as possible in as many forms as possible.
Charged with creating glass display cases for the fresh mozzarella, salumi and a wide array of antipasti, the mozzarella bar takes center stage in the dining room. Approximately 40-feet long, the open plan design allows guests to interact with the chefs hard at work preparing meals with skill and passion. Anchoring the end of the bar is a full-sized “wood-fired” hearth oven turning our traditional thin crust, hand-tossed pizza.
Beyond the signature mozzarella menu, OBICÀ offers a full menu of non-cheese dishes prepared in the full-service kitchen. The chef prepares pastas made in house and bread baked fresh for each meal period.
