- Deliveroo Restaurant Awards: Nominated for Best Italian
About La Cucina - Oxford
La Cucina’s genuine Italian dishes, made from fresh produce, come in big, robust portions. The freshly baked pizza, crafted from homemade dough, is amazing, but we love their Pappardelle con l’Anatra - pasta ribbons in a rich duck and red wine sauce!
