    About MidiCi The Neapolitan Pizza Company

    MidiCi The Neapolitan Pizza Company is a fast-fine pizza franchise that brings friends together. We opened our first restaurant to great fanfare in Los Angeles in 2015; we plan to open 50 by the end of 2017, and we aim to open 1,000 locations within 20 years. Why are we confident? Because people love pizza, they love personalization, and they love quality. But even more than that, they love spending time with one another.

    MidiCi, pronounced Mee-Dee-Chee means "You Tell Me" in Italian. We offer fully personalized pizzas baked-to-order in a traditional wood-fired brick oven made from the stones of Naples. Staying true to its Neapolitan roots, the pizza dough is created with only four fine ingredients - double zero and Neapolitan flour, sea salt, pure water and yeast. Garnishes are derived from authentic crushed GMO-free Neapolitan tomatoes, "white gold” mozzarella di buffala and Italian cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. MidiCi also serves hand-tossed salads, small bites, desserts including Nutella® pizza, coffee, beer and wine.
