Nola Mia Gelato Cafe

Once we arrived next door realized we were famished. I ran over here to see what was available to eat. Honestly the establishment doesn't look like much. We ended up coming back 2 x with in 3 hours, will say each time, waited on promptly & very friendly staff. Casual establishment nothing fancy in an off the beat location. I am a firm believer that location doesn't matter, if the food is awesome. Omg! The pizza here is the best, made me realize what I have been missing. Pizza is not exaggerated wet or dry, sauce is just perfect, goodness the crust light, toasted & amazing! You definitely want to give this pizza a chance!

This lil cafe saved me several times on my recent trip to New Orleans. I was staying in an Airbnb next door, and after spending the days out having' a good ol' time, I would come back late, feeling thirsty and hungry/snacky. There isn't anything else offering quick, tasty bites in the neighborhood. I refueled on this cafe's sorbet, waters, and pizzas. All were very yummy and reasonably priced.

While visiting NOLA, we decided last minute to go to a burlesque show which happened to be next door to this pizza/gelato place. The door man at the show told us they didn't serve food, but we could get take out next door at Nola Mia and bring it in during the show to enjoy. So, we did! The chicken parm was tasty, as was the Greek Salad. The employees here are very friendly and accommodating. They bagged everything to go, including napkins and utensils, and told us to enjoy the show next door. Excellent menu, tasty gelatos, and friendly workers.

Owner was very nice. Shop is cute and quaint however the pizza was bland. I wanted to really love it.

NOLA Mia Gelato Cafe is a great new addition to the New Orleans pizza and gelato scene. They offer some large slices of pizza at good prices along with offering large servings of delicious gelato. Their prices aren't quite a good deal as New York's pint of beer and a slice of pizza for $5 but they are still a good deal especially these days of price increases all around due to the pandemic troubles. This is smaller space but it has quickly gotten quite popular as word has spread. They also offer coffee, sandwiches, bagels and pastries so Angelo Brocato's has a little competition now.Overall this is a good spot to grab some affordable food and the pizza seems to make the New Yorkers and other Yankees happy (so now they can compare, contrast and fight about the pizza here with the pizza at Pizza Delicious to continue their pizza wars and quest to transform New Orleans, LA into L.A. California). I will just side with the long time local Sicilians in the area that want to keep NOLA more Sicilian myself as you don't want to cross a Sicilian :)My video review of NOLA Mia Gelato Cafe is here:https://youtu.be/HHqxqlgZd9E

When you enter this cute cafe it's like stepping into another world, it has the cutest vibes I love their cafe and their pizza wowowow amazing! They were so kind as well!

One of the Marigny/Bywater gems that you hate to publicize because then you'll have to wait an hour to eat.....BUT the gelato was some of the best I've had in the city. Do not SLEEP on the mascarpone and fig gelato. It is utterly perfection. The espresso and the pistachio gelato was also really delicious. My kids devoured the blood orange gelato. Now it's on the pricier side- $4 for one scoop;one flavor small and $8 for a large and two flavors. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was quiet and empty. A great time to take the kids. Plenty of street parking and cool art inside and out.

Five all the way. I usually get my food to go when I come with Nick. But he is at work so I decided to sit and eat. Interesting people run in and out. You can order by the slice and eat the pizza on the run. Freshly made an so good. Cheaper than all the fast food places around. They also have a great lunch specialI also tried their meat lasagna for $11.95. Freshly made and the pasta is like none I have tasted before. So light and fluffy. The staff is friendly and appreciative of your business. You gotta try them

A hidden gem !Excellent pizza and excellent gelato !The owner is Italian (hear Italian radio when he is there) with a gracious and warm personality.When FBI, ATF, HSI, AL & MS bomb squads, NOPD, NOFD etc were investigating the AirBNB where the Bourbon Street terrorist stayed (4 blocks away) an NOPD Sargent ordered pizzas for everyone & was going to pick up the tab personally (too many agencies to put on expense accounts).The owner refused payment for a dozen pizzas.

Sooooo good, authentic, delicious, affordable. It was awesome to hear about the origin of some of these recipes from his family members in Italy. New York style pizzas.
