With a name like "The Italian," diners know what they're in for when they rock up to this North Willoughby restaurant. It's styled itself as a local trattoria, with its wood-fired pizzas made on stone ground bases , house-made pasta and salads. The Italian but keeps things interesting with a strong focus on organic, biodynamic local and Italian wines. Look out for the "grape of the week," where you can sample an interesting variety by the glass.
The Italian Bar Pizza is an Italian restaurant and pizzeria located in Willoughby on Sydney’s North Shore. We are known and loved for our wood fired pizza which was recently included in Broadsheet‘s Best Pizza in Sydney guide. We believe that eating is one of life’s great pleasures and that every meal is an opportunity to nourish ourselves. It’s for this reason that we make our pizza with stone ground, organic Australian flour. We ferment our dough for three days using a natural ‘mother’ starter, which pre digests gluten and starch. The end result? A great tasting pizza that is light, easier to digest and better for you.
Our ethos also extends to our wine list which is mostly organic, biodynamic & low intervention. Producers such as Moon Wines from Victoria and South Australia’s Unico Zello. We support these wine makers because we feel better about drinking wine that is chemical free and isn’t filtered. We are open for dinner and takeaway seven days and for lunch Saturday & Sunday. When you walk through our doors expect to receive warm, lovable Italian service.
