About Nucci

A neighbourhood Italian where the food is made with care and nobody is in a hurry to move you on.

You’ll find us on the Antrim Road, cooking the dishes people actually crave: stone-baked pizza, slow-cooked beef ragù lasagne, a proper carbonara with guanciale, and a tiramisu made with Bushmills.

Come for brunch with the kids, a plate of pasta with friends or a long dinner for something worth marking. However you arrive, you’ll be looked after.

Slow mornings

Brunch runs from ten until three. Eggs Benedict, smashed avocado bagels, a pancake stack with berry compôte and bacon, or the full Irish breakfast, veggie if you’d rather.

The whole family

Little ones get a menu of their own, from a kids’ margherita to spaghetti bolognese, so everyone at the table has something they’ll finish.

Something to celebrate

Start with a charcuterie platter for the table, move on to sirloin or sea bass, and let dessert take as long as it takes. Birthdays, anniversaries or simply Friday.
