The popular chef Phil Parisse, formerly of Rizzuto's Restaurant in West Hartford, has put his touch on the menu, and added fresh pasta, gourmet salads, and high-end entrees to NIXS’ award-winning appetizers and contemporary cuisine. Customers can still expect the bar’s signature craft cocktails and extensive microbrew selection. NIXS has also created a new catering division to make any occasion special. All of the company’s enhancements are captured in its new marketing campaign, appropriately titled:
“New Chef, New Look, New NIXS.”
