Bringing authentic Neapolitan pizza to York food lovers and a beloved local favourite, don’t miss their Salsiccia e Porcini pizza, which features Fior di latte mozzarella, sautéed porcini mushrooms, fennel-flavoured sausage and pecorino Romano cheese. They also offer an array of mind-blowing desserts, such as a rum baba cake soaked in syrup and paired with fresh espresso. Never mind the best pizza in Yorkshire. It’s among the best dining spots in York, full stop.
