Pizzeria Popolare

Pizzeria Popolare's menu centers on the art of Neapolitan pizza-making, executed with the quality ingredients and traditional techniques that define this iconic Italian style. Each pizza begins with dough that's been carefully prepared and allowed to rise properly, creating the characteristic soft, slightly charred crust that's the hallmark of authentic Neapolitan pizza. The classic Margherita showcases this approach perfectly—San Marzano tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil, and olive oil combine in the simple perfection that has made this pizza legendary.

Beyond the classics, the menu ventures into creative territory while maintaining Italian sensibilities. The pizza topped with pistachio pesto and stracciatella demonstrates the kitchen's willingness to innovate, combining the creamy richness of stracciatella with the distinctive flavor of Sicilian pistachios. These inventive pizzas sit comfortably alongside traditional offerings, giving diners the choice between time-honored favorites and contemporary interpretations.

The menu extends beyond pizza to encompass other Italian staples. Pasta dishes include luxurious preparations like truffle pasta, where the earthy intensity of truffles elevates simple pasta into something special. The kitchen's commitment to homemade preparation—100% of recipes are made in-house—ensures that even familiar dishes taste distinctly fresh and carefully crafted. This dedication to from-scratch cooking, combined with the sourcing of 75% of products locally or directly from Italy, creates a menu that's both authentic and sustainable.

Desserts maintain the Italian focus, with tiramisù serving as the signature sweet ending. The restaurant's approach to vegetarian dining deserves special mention—with 65% of the menu suitable for vegetarians, Pizzeria Popolare demonstrates that Italian cuisine's natural abundance of vegetable-forward dishes can satisfy diverse dietary preferences without feeling limited or compromised. Whether you're ordering a classic Margherita or exploring the menu's more creative offerings, the food at Pizzeria Popolare delivers the flavors of Italy with the quality and care that has made Big Mamma a Parisian institution.
