Nestled in the grand Chamberlain Square of Birmingham, where old meets new, this is La Bellezza, our Italian restaurant and pizzeria, in all its 30ft tall, 150 seat, twinkling glory.
Let us take you to a romantically wild courtyard in Perugia, a whimsical theatre; with tumbling ivy hanging from the ceiling, handmade pale orange Murano glass chandeliers, and seven-metre-long woven curtains, decorated with birds of paradise. A perfect spot for romantic dinners, long meals with groups or a sexy business lunch.
With a menu of classic Italian recipes with fun cheeky twists by Head Chef Mimmo, who has come to Birmingham armed with his Nonna’s secret tips for the richest of ragus. Let us take you on a ride with Tartare con Puttanesca, a playful riff of the classic beef tartare with a sharp puttanesca accents of capers and anchovy, homemade pork and beef meatballs, Polpette al Sugo, in the tangiest San Marzano tomato sauce, or for sharing, our gigantic La Gran Carbonara, simply made with spaghetti alla chitarra, crispy guanicale, egg yolk and lotsa pepper, served from a 8kg wheel of Pecorino DOP. Our Neapolitan pizza dough has been brought to life with flavours, from the crazy to the classic, such as a double truffle sensation or the Brumsaola, with bresaola, stracciatella and fresh lemon zest. For major desserts, at 6-inches tall, single and ready to mingle, the Incomparable Lemon Pie is not for the faint-hearted, with a quivering tower of meringue and zingy lemon curd base. Cocktails more your finale? We have them XL, twisted with sweet white peach liqueur, rum and fresh grapefruit, or the classic negroni with a thyme infusion.
So on the eve of our ten-year-long crazy Big Mamma adventure… we take a deep breath and declare…
BUONGIORNO BRUMMIES, WELCOME TO LA BELLEZZA !
