Start With The Hero: Pizza Fritta
If it’s your first visit, pizza fritta should always be the centrepiece.
Pizza fritta is:
- crisp on the outside
- soft and steamy inside
- rich but surprisingly light
- designed to be shared
Rather than ordering one per person, the Italian approach is to order one or two pizza fritta for the table, then build around them.
That way, you get the full experience without feeling overwhelmed.

How Many Pizza Fritta Should You Order?
As a general guide:
- 2 people → 1 pizza fritta + sides
- 3–4 people → 2 pizza fritta + sides
- Larger groups → multiple pizza fritta shared across the table
Pizza fritta is filling, but because the interior is airy, it works beautifully as a shared dish rather than a solo main.
Balance The Table With Lighter Sides
Pizza fritta shines brightest when it’s paired with contrast.
That means adding:
- antipasti
- salads
- fresh, lighter Italian dishes
These balance the richness of the fried dough and refresh the palate between bites.
Instead of ordering lots of heavy dishes, Italians aim for variety — a little of this, a little of that.

Drinks Matter More Than You Think

The goal isn’t to overpower the food — it’s to keep things fresh and lively.
Crisp wines, classic Italian cocktails and refreshing non-alcoholic options all pair beautifully with pizza fritta and antipasti.
