Another Wood-Fired Oven Italian Spot Gives Town Square a Shot

An Italian dining switcheroo on the upper level at Town Square with the Neapolitan style of La Bella Napoli swiftly replaced by another Italian restaurant.

Keeping the Naples-built, wood-fired Stefano Ferrara pizza oven, a central attraction of its three-year-old predecessor, Minchia’s Cibo Italiano is currently serving daily from 4 to 10 p.m, open earlier at noon on Saturday and Sunday and announcing future plans to add lunch on Thursday and Fridays.

Located across from Blue Martini and growing the menu to include familiar Italian favorites, Minchia’s has also created a daily happy hour from 4 to 7 p.m.

Also still on the way to Town Square, Pho Kim Long’s first expansion from Chinatown, Master Kim’s Korean BBQ’s conveyor belt dining experience, the fifth local home for Bok Bok Chicken, the slow to arrive Mora Ice Creamery from Bainbridge Island, Washington, and newcomer DoMazing Edible Cookie Dough, moving into a space behind California Pizza Kitchen.
