napoletana style
wood fired pizza

Born in Naples, raised in Ottawa. Making great pies with the best Italian and local ingredients and cooked in a brick oven at high heat to achieve a puffy, flame-blackened crust, lightly-crispy and a soft, elastic, and slightly wet centre.
Simple. Natural. Fresh. Only the best!

  • Real Napoletana pizza comes in only one size: 10-12″ diameter / personal size
