• Italian • San Luis Obispo
Booked 37 times today
Nicola Restaurant is the vision of Executive Chef Nicola Allegretta. After creating several successful concepts such as Mama's Meatball and Mistura Restaurants in San Luis Obispo, Chef Nicola opened this new project as an homage to the *Bachiche*. In Peru, *Bachiche* refers to the unique combination cuisine born from the blending of Italian and Peruvian culinary traditions. It describes dishes that merge Italian ingredients and techniques with Peruvian flavors—or vice versa—a style that emerged after Italian immigrants, particularly from Genoa, arrived in Peru during the mid-19th century.At Nicola Restaurant, you’ll discover both the latest trends in Italian and Peruvian cuisine as well as timeless classic dishes.

    Nate’s on Marsh absolutely knocked Mother’s Day brunch out of the park. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated. Even on such a busy holiday, the staff handled everything with grace and genuine hospitality, making the experience feel relaxed and special rather than rushed. The food was exceptional — beautifully presented, fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish felt elevated while still being comforting and approachable. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they do.

    Great dining experience as always. The service is the best I’ve ever had at any restaurant. Everyone is not afraid to help out and our server would pick up dirty dishes bring out food get drinks. Forget his name with the curly hair, but we usually have him and we really like him. The food is great. I always have a tough time deciding what to eat and also what to drink.
