About Bocconcino's Woodfired Pizzeria

Bocconcino's delivers blistered, woodfired pies and warm neighbourhood energy on Como Parade West. Locals head here for blistered crusts with proper char, from the seafood-loaded Frutti Di Mare to the house Sicilian. Seating spans the lively front dining room, heated outdoor tables, and extra spots across the street. The kitchen keeps the pace brisk even during peak weekend rushes, plating bowls of gnocchi and sending out warm Nutella-stuffed filotino alongside crisp-edged pizzas straight from the oven.

  • Woodfired Crusts: Blistered crusts with balanced crispness and chew come straight from the woodfired oven, topped with fresh house ingredients.
  • Heated Outdoor Seating: Heated outdoor pavement seating and indoor tables accommodate busy weekend family crowds.
