** Please note: Santos Pizzeria will be closed for a few weeks as of Jan 18 due to a small fire and smoke damage in the kitchen - stay tuned and we will let you all know when they are back up and running.

Wow - Mamma LOVES finding treasures like this. Santo Pizzeria Napoletana in Laverton is just that, an absolute treasure. Owners Daniele and Cora are true believers in what they do, and you can feel it the moment you walk in. This is pizza and bread made with genuine respect for people, quality ingredients and the authentic traditions of Naples. Yum.

All the pizzas are under $20 and you can choose between a white base (plain) or a red base (tomato). Simple, classic and done properly. Mamma highly recommends saving room for the tiramisu – it’s a must.

There is only a small window bench here so it is more a takeaway.

The pizza dough is soft, but crispy and light, and like all good Napoletana pizzas, made to be rolled up and devoured. And when we say devour… we mean all of it. That crust is incredible.

Mamma says everything just tastes better when it’s made with this much love!

You’ll need to plan ahead with your pizza nights as bookings are essential and need to be made before 4pm. Time slots are snapped up quickly, it’s one of those places locals know because it really is that special.

Oh and how good is this - Eat pizza, do good. On Charity Wednesdays they cook for the community too, so hang onto your pizza boxes and trade them in:
3 boxes = a free garlic focaccia, plus one donated to a family in need
5 boxes = a free Margherita, plus one donated

You can also grab St Ali coffee, along with incredible sourdough and brioche. Hot tip - get there at 10am when they open for the brioche that is just out of the oven- it’s warm and cloud-like - and it will change your life. Get in quick so you don’t miss out!
