About San Marzano Pizzeria / Salumi Bar

Woodfired sourdough pizzas and counter-sliced salumi make this Docklands dining room an easy call. Regulars come for the fermented crusts sporting light leopard spotting—crisp on the outside, airy within, and baked without a soggy middle. Thin slices of cured meats come shaved directly at the deli counter for antipasti boards, followed by handmade pappardelle or pies loaded with pork and fennel, pepperoni, and tiger prawns. The room keeps things relaxed with low ambient lighting, accommodating staff, and enough space between tables for prams and group spreads. It ends on a sweet note with house tiramisu and a chilled aperol spritz.

  • Woodfired Sourdough Crusted Pizzas: Dough fermented for oven spring and leopard-spotted char, topped with pork and fennel or tiger prawns.
  • Counter-Sliced Salumi: Cured meats shaved straight at the counter for antipasti platters and boards.
  • Family-Friendly Layout: Generous table spacing, high chairs, and pram room make family dinners stress-free.

Why Choose San Marzano Pizzeria / Salumi Bar

Authentic sourdough crusts, counter-sliced salumi, and genuine family hospitality in Docklands

  • Properly Fermented Woodfired Crusts

    Fermented sourdough bases baked in a woodfired oven produce an airy, blistered crust with balanced crispness and chew.

    The crust has great oven spring, light leopard spotting, and a crisp exterior with a soft, airy centre.

  • Substantial and Chewy Sourdough Bases

    House-made dough and quality toppings ensure rich flavors across classic and specialty sourdough pizza offerings.

    Both pizzas were packed with rich toppings, and the crust was wonderfully chewy with a nice crunchy edge

  • Stress-Free Family Amenities and Room

    A thoughtful layout provides dedicated space for pram parking, available high chairs, and ample table space for young children.

    There is space to store a pram, high chairs are available and I found there was enough room at the table for kids to have their toys or colouring activities without feeling cramped.

  • Fresh Counter-Sliced Cured Meats

    Salumi is sliced fresh to order directly in the front-of-house, showcasing authentic Italian preparation.

    They actually slice some of the cured meats on the counter which is a super cool little nod to the authenticity of the restaurant.
