la storia
We’ve always been interested in the origins of great food, and are enamored with duplicating it as closely as we can. We’ve been going to Italy for years, and always loved the pizza. The greatest pizza tradition is in Naples, where the artisan pizzaioli pizza makers combine two elements, the oven and the ingredients, to create their renowned pizza napoletana. Our DLM Naples-Style Pizza has the signature airy crust with a charred exterior and chewy interior, and each pizza is topped with the perfect ratio of ingredients.

gli ingredienti
We chose every single ingredient very carefully to produce the optimum pizza. We use our own signature ingredients including Vera Jane’s Extra-Virgin Olive Oil from Tuscany and cheeses we make right here such as DLM Fresh Mozzarella and Ricotta.

il forno
To make a Naples-style pizza, you need to bake directly on the hearth of an extremely hot oven. Our "Naples" oven, recently installed at our Washington Square store, reaches temperatures well over 1,000 degrees in the upper part of the oven! Baking this way produces the amazing crust of a Naples-style pizza, with its charred exterior and chewy interior.
