Rosebank, Johannesburg · Trained in Napoli
Vera pizza.
Napz attitude.
Traditional Neapolitan pizza —fresh dough and absolutely no shortcuts.
From Cava de’ Tirreni to Joburg
Born from family.
Trained in Naples.
Built in Rosebank.
Our family comes from Cava De’ Tirreni — a little town an hour from the loud, colourful, glorious chaos of Napoli. We grew up on Sunday sugo, grated Pecorino and arguments about who found the best mozzarella.
Now we make the most beloved dish on earth the only way it should be made: the Vera Pizza Napoletana. Trained in Naples by the AVPN, we’re proudly the first South African brand to carry the legacy.
Channeling the mischief of Pulcinella, we dance on the edge of tradition — slapping out pizza that gets you one bite closer to Naples.
— Enrico & Viviana Adinolfi
Trained by the AVPN in Naples
Learned in Naples.
Made in Rosebank.
Proud to be the first South African brand trained by the AVPN in Naples, Italy.
We travelled to the birthplace of Neapolitan pizza to learn the craft properly—from dough and fermentation to hand-stretching, ingredient selection and the perfect bake.
Then we brought that knowledge home to Johannesburg.
What makes us truly Neapolitan?
As well as being trained by the Association of True Neapolitan Pizza (AVPN), here is what else makes our pizzas authentic…
Fresh Dough Daily
We make our dough fresh every day with 00 flour, and it's fermented over 24 hours.
Authentic Ingredients
The Holy Trinity: 00 flour, Fior di Latte, Roma tomatoes. Our ingredients are sourced directly from Italy.
Hot Ovens
Our pizzas are cooked for 90 seconds
True Neapolitan pizza
The result, authentic Neapolitan pizza. Soft, light and fluffy pizza with an airy and raised cornicione crust.
