We invite our community to participate in a time-honored tradition. Experience food as a daily pursuit, a connection to ingredients as they were meant to be.
Pa’La is food with a sense of history, cooking in a way that is inherently approachable and human.
The kitchen at Pa’La centers around a hand-built wood-burning oven and a forged-steel grill. In our cooking we use fire, smoke, coals, and embers to create dishes that reflect the seafood, grains, and vegetable-driven coastal cultures of the Mediterranean and South America. We are committed to strong relationships with a few select organic farmers and artisans practicing responsible agriculture and production.
Every dish in Pa’la starts with a high quality extra virgin olive oil. For every bottle of oil, there is a beautiful story to tell.
All of our vinegars have perfectly balanced profiles, with exeptional body and flavoring. A few drops are enough to bring vibrancy to any dish.
We only use sea salt, harvested by hand from naturally-fed salt pans, to enhance the flavor of our dishes.
“I WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR THE COMMUNITY, WITH COOKING AS A REFLECTION OF THE HONESTY AND PURITY OF THE INGREDIENTS. WHERE FOOD IS A MAKER OF CULTURE AND MEMORIES.”
Urciuoli creates dishes that highlight the natural qualities of the food itself, with the kind of integrity and care that comes from his culinary roots. Pa’La is the culmination of these efforts—a place where good food offers an experience for the community.
