About De Marconi's Pizza & Pasta

Highett regulars know De Marconi’s Pizza & Pasta as the real deal for old-school deck pizza—generously topped, perfectly timed, and crisp on the bottom. Long-time owner-operated and proudly low on fuss, the counter kitchen lets you watch every base get hand-stretched and loaded right in front of you. Bases bake balanced—not too thick, not too thin—yielding a charred bite with a soft, chewy crumb underneath heaps of fresh ingredients. Takeaway orders hit the counter piping hot for family movie nights, while dietary substitutions like gluten-free bases and tomato sauce ingredient checks are handled with patient care. Settle an evening order with the Supreme or tender ravioli tossed in chicken avocado sauce.

  • Owner-crafted at the counter: The long-time owner hand-stretches and builds every order directly behind the counter in plain view.
  • Classic deck-baked crust: Traditional baking turns out balanced crusts with a crisp underside, chewy interior, and heavy toppings.
  • Dietary transparency: Staff patiently clarify sauce bases and accommodate gluten-free requests without hesitation.

  • Traditional Crust with Generous Toppings

    Pizzas are prepared on crisp, structured traditional bases loaded generously with toppings, offering a dependable alternative to flimsy styles.

    The crust has a crisp, charred bottom, and an interior crumb that remains soft, moist, and delightfully chewy. It's always topped with heaps of the freshest toppings.

    They were patient and understanding about my fructose issues, interested in what the limitations entailed, all too happy to let me read the ingredients of the tomato base they put on their pizzas.
