Grandmother's Recipe, Neighborhood's Pizza
Malatesta's was built on one rule: mozzarella down first, sauce on top. That recipe hasn't changed — and neither has the commitment behind it.
Malatesta's | Our Story
Grandmother's Kitchen
Fresh dough, mozzarella laid down first, sauce spooned over the top, finished with grated Pecorino Romano. Grandmother's layering technique — carried forward without shortcuts.
Monday Is for Prep
The shop closes Monday and Tuesday — not for rest, but for focused prep and deep cleaning that keep every pie consistent. Doors open Wednesday, everything's ready.
Two Styles, One Shop
Grandma-style squares and thin-crust bar pies — two genuinely different things, both done right. The World Famous Tomato Pie and the rosemary potato pizza each have their own devoted following.
Part of the Weekly Routine
Families fold us into their weekly routine, sports teams pile in after games, and couples grab a quiet pie on a Wednesday night. That trust shows up box after box — and it's exactly what we're here for.
