Pizzeria Vesuvius

Our NY style pizza is some of the best in the city – made from scratch and featuring fresh, premium ingredients baked to perfection in our 800 degree Italian, woodfire oven.

Lodged in a space off Edgewood, Pizzeria Vesuvius has a vibe that re-invents Mellow Mushroom of the '70s with a psychedelic sign, uniquely topped pizzas and a basic beer hall-inspired booze list. And despite pizzas named after mountain chains--the Kilimanjaro is stacked high with sausage, ham, pepperoni and bacon--the pies are good. An Italian wood-fired oven does wonders to the thin-but-chewy crust. The gimmicky menu might have foodies rolling their eyes, but this is a casual atmosphere with a fun menu. And pizza, after all, is supposed to be fun.

Pizzeria Vesuvius died once, but like a cat or a character in a video game, it's been given another life. The comeback is courtesy of P’cheen chef Alex Friedman, who has revamped the menu and put both the Neapolitan and New York Style pies front and center. You’ll definitely find the usual ingredients to top your 'za, but we'd encourage you to get a little adventurous with some baby arugula, house cured bacon, or Bone Lick ham. What’s Bone Lick, you ask? Well it’s spot #3 in their empire, a BBQ joint on the westside coming soon.
