Obikà Mozzarella Bar Debuts Today in Century City

Grid View

As of today Obikà Mozzarella Bar has opened its sleek interior at the Westfield mall in Century City. With previous locations throughout Italy and even a space in New York, this LA outpost marks location 14, with a 15th eatery planned for the Beverly Center. At Obikà, the star of the show is the Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP which proprietor Silvio Ursini flies in three times a week from Italy’s Paestum and Agro Pontino regions. Of course, with a name like Obikà Mozzarella Bar, patrons can expect a lengthy mozzarella menu, but Obikà also serves salads, pasta dishes, and other entrees, so not every dish comes with a mound of mozzarella. And because the menu offers both small plates and entree-sized portions, this could be a lunch, dinner, or even snacking spot. Come by for Italian happy hour or “aperitivo hour” and order a glass of wine plus bites off the mozzarella bar menu.

As for dining, a handful of tables exist on Obikà's patio for an al fresco meal, patrons can also choose from mozzarella bar seating, or regular two and four-tops behind the bar. Overall, the space feels modern and clean with gray tones but the restaurant's glass facade floods in natural light brightening up the space considerably. Obikà is open Sun-Thu, 11AM-10PM, and Fri-Sat, 11AM-midnight. Reserve a table here.
