Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria was founded on the passion for authentic, fire-roasted pizzas from Naples, Italy. Naples is the birthplace of pizza, where eating a margherita pizza is a daily ritual and where culinary traditions in pizza making have gone unchanged for 200 years. Whether you eat it on the streets of Naples, or inside Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria, experiencing authentic Neapolitan pizza is an unforgettable experience. Our concept is a licensed fast casual pizzeria that offers authentic Neapolitan pizzas, fresh salads, espresso and gelato/desserts in a counter-ordering format with added service. Our room boasts atmosphere and style allowing for a comfortable meal whether it's a quick lunch or a wine-filled evening. What makes our pizzas unique to North America is our passionate adherence to the strict standards of the Associazone Verace Pizza Napoletana, a Naples-based organization dedicated to preserving the standards of authentic pizza. We import our flour and tomatoes from Naples, and every pizza is topped with fior-di-latte(fresh whole milk mozzarella). After being cooked in our 900 degree fire oven for 90 seconds, the final product becomes a thin-crust pizza that cannot be compared to any pizza available on the market today. It is light, both soft and crispy and because of the low levels of gluten in the flour, allows you to digest and feel great. Some of our pizzas combine the dough and cooking technique of Naples with some non-Italian flavours, which appeals to a broad spectrum of customers. Igniting the passion - Our franchisee trips to Naples Famoso is not just another pizza place. Our identity is so tied to authenticity, that it's difficult to open multiple locations with multiple franchisees without dedicating some time to experiencing authenticity first hand. That is why we take all of our franchisees to Naples, Italy for a week to eat real Napoletana pizza in 120 -year old pizzerias and experience the vibrant culture of Naples. Italians are very passionate and proud of their culinary history, and it's important for North Americans to adopt this passion - especially if we're representing their food to the world. Our visits to local farmers, local pizzeria owners, and some of our actual suppliers, give us knowledge and appreciation for the art of Neapolitan pizza.
