Book NowAbout Maurizio Pizzeria
Maurizio Pizzeria serves genuine wood-fired pies with airy dough, pulled hot from the brick oven in Reservoir. The kitchen is run by an Italian family, turning out plates of arancini, house meatballs, and pizza topped with mortadella and ricotta. Guests can watch pizzaiolo Maurizio work the wood fire front and centre, or opt for a dedicated wood-fired gluten-free crust. Tables frequently share antipasto boards loaded with cured meats and cheeses before finishing with house-made tiramisu.
