Our Pizzas are Different

At Bucintoro restaurant we use only the best Italian Ingredients, to reproduce the same flavour for our pizzas that makes them special.

Roman pizza (Italian: pizza romana) is a style of pizza originating in Rome, but now widespread, especially in Central Italy.

The roman style thin base pizza. Most sit-down restaurants serving pizza in Rome serve this style, and indeed this is probably the most commonly found style of pizza in restaurants in most regions of Italy. Sometimes referred to as pizza bassa (low pizza) to distinguish from pizza alta (high pizza – the Neapolitan style). One of the key differences in the ingredients for the dough compared to the Neapolitan style is in the addition of oil, which contributes to the crispness of the resulting base, described using the word “scrocchiarella”, an onomatopoeic adjective in the Romanesco dialect.
However, the naming of the latter style of pizza does not appear to be consistent across Italy, and in some parts of the country this may only be referred to as pizza bassa.
