01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
When visiting Pizzeria TARALLI in the neighbourhood of Soshigaya, the natural starting point is the aromatic Neapolitan-style pizza fresh from the oven. The crust balances crisp lightness with a tender, chewy crumb right through the cornicione, holding up well to rich cheeses and varied toppings. Among the cheese-based pies, the Biancaneve pairs creamy mozzarella and freshly shaved Grana Padano with generous prosciutto and peppery rocket, letting the contrast of ingredients shine.
From Neapolitan Classics to Distinctive Toppings
The menu divides neatly into tomato-sauced and cheese-based pizzas, each with an extensive range. Beyond standard choices like the Margherita with fragrant basil and balanced tomato acidity, you will find options such as the Pescatore loaded with seafood and the Bismarck topped with asparagus and a soft-boiled egg. Distinctive house combinations are also well represented, including the Ciccione, featuring pork belly and crisp lotus root, and the Boscaiola, layered with mushrooms and anchovy sauce.
Antipasti and Wine for the Table
While the pizza bakes, sharing a colourful platter of assorted antipasti or the fritto misto of Neapolitan fried bites is a comfortable way to settle in. Glasses of wine or Italian Moretti beer fit easily into the flow of conversation. The meal finishes at an unhurried pace with selections such as house-made limoncello, tiramisu, and espresso.
The casual, understated room accommodates everything from solo weekday lunches to dinners with friends. As tables fill quickly, particularly on weekends, booking ahead helps avoid a wait. For dining at home, takeaway-exclusive half-and-half pizzas are also available.
