Make Great Pizza!
Il Pizzaiolo is a locally owned traditional Italian wood-fired pizza restaurant. We cook pizza the real way, at 800 degrees in a wood burning oven. Our dough is hand-made and hand stretched. Our sausage, meatballs, croutons and dressings are also hand-made. All of our ingredients are fresh and we buy locally when available.
The Italian influence of our pizza does not stop at the dough and oven; it defines the culture of our restaurant. In Italy a pizzaiolo is not simply a job, it is a craft. It is an honorable position held by highly skilled people who love what they do and the people they serve. Even though a pizza cooks in just a few minutes inside these ovens, it is still considered a slow food as it promotes local products and centuries-old traditions of food production and preparation.
