Restaurant
The original wood-fired trattoria — pizzas, hand-rolled pasta and big-table salads, served where it all started: at the table. Book, walk in, and bring the famiglia.

Cape Town · Established 1992
A three-decade story that unfolded as the ultimate rom-com meets foodie adventure — love at first bite, Italian flavours blended with South African charm, and the kind of pizza that brings the famiglia together.
Two ways to enjoy it
Eat in at a sit-down Restaurant, order in from a delivery-first GO kitchen — or get both at a GO+ store. Same wood-fired heritage, same secret-recipe dough.

Built for delivery and collection — the wood-fired menu, boxed to travel, on Uber Eats, Mr D Food and letsorder direct ordering.
The hybrid — a sit-down table when you want it, the delivery-first GO kitchen when you don't. Eat in, take away, or order to your door.
Our story
It started in Cape Town in 1992 — Kinga Baranowska and Michael Terespolsky, a passion for crafting something more than just a meal, and a tiny pizzeria with a wood-fired oven.
Three decades later we're still doing it the same way. Italian inspiration, South African heart. Hand-stretched dough, blistered crusts, fresh produce, and recipes you'll only find on our menu.
Buon appetito,
Kinga & Michael

Why the dough's different
The same flour, the same hydration, the same overnight cold ferment, the same hand-stretch at the bench — in every restaurant and every GO kitchen. That's the secret-recipe dough, and it has never changed.
