Bella Mia North Finchley is a family run Italian restaurant at 857 High Road. Founded by chef Denis and his wife Lucia, the restaurant draws on traditional recipes and a welcoming Italian approach to hospitality, with dishes prepared in an open kitchen for dining in, collection and delivery.
Antipasti range from cannellini bean soup, minestrone and tomato bruschetta to fried calamari, garlic king prawns and Sicilian arancini. Caprese salad, aubergine rolls, mussels and mixed cured meats provide further ways to begin, with several vegetable led plates available for guests who prefer a meat free meal.
Pasta includes spaghetti with tomato and basil, traditional Bolognese, homemade meatballs, clams or mixed seafood. Risotto and gluten free penne add flexibility, while the pizza list moves from familiar combinations to house creations topped with Italian sausage, buffalo mozzarella, porcini mushrooms, roasted vegetables and truffle oil.
Main course salads bring together grilled chicken, avocado, tomatoes, leaves and cheese for a lighter option. Italian wines and classic desserts round out a leisurely meal, while lunch specials and a children’s menu make Bella Mia practical for families as well as couples and groups gathering for an evening meal.
