From sourdough pizza and fresh pasta to meat and fish dishes, PIZZAMANIA brings a full Italian dining experience to the heart of Bucharest, just steps away from Piața Victoriei.
Bucharest has a growing food scene, but there is always room for great Italian food. At PIZZAMANIA, traditional recipes meet quality ingredients and a passion for cooking. Located on Strada Grigore Alexandrescu, the restaurant sits just a short walk from Piața Victoriei. Here, the warmth of an Italian trattoria meets the energy of central Bucharest.
This week, Ontopo’s Restaurant of the Week takes us to PIZZAMANIA. Despite its name, the restaurant offers much more than pizza. Alongside its signature sourdough pizzas, the menu features fresh pasta, Italian classics, meat and fish dishes. Whether you’re meeting friends or planning a special dinner, there’s something for every appetite.
Much more than pizza: Discover the Italian menu
At PIZZAMANIA, pizza is an important part of the story. The restaurant specializes in sourdough pizza, following Italian baking traditions and using carefully selected ingredients. As a result, each pizza offers a distinctive texture and the familiar flavors of Neapolitan-style cooking.
For a classic choice, try the Margherita with tomato sauce, basil and fior di latte mozzarella. Meanwhile, the Diavola adds a little heat with mozzarella and spicy salami. Cheese lovers can also explore the Formaggi, with provolone, blue cheese and Grana Padano.
However, the kitchen goes well beyond pizza. The menu also includes fresh pasta, Italian-inspired meat dishes and fish with seasonal vegetables. For example, you can order Argentine beef tagliata with green asparagus, arugula and Parmigiano Reggiano. Alternatively, try the fish of the day, served with seasonal vegetables. In addition, starters, charcuterie boards and Italian desserts complete the experience.
Whether you prefer a simple pizza or a full three-course dinner, PIZZAMANIA offers plenty of choices.
A little taste of Italy in central Bucharest
Good Italian food tastes even better when you have time to enjoy it. PIZZAMANIA welcomes guests into a comfortable interior with a relaxed atmosphere. There’s also a covered terrace, making it a great choice for different occasions.
The restaurant fits naturally into the rhythm of the neighborhood. For example, you can stop by for a business lunch or meet a friend over pizza. Alternatively, gather around the table for a leisurely dinner. Add fresh pasta, a flavorful main course and a glass of wine. Suddenly, an ordinary evening feels like a little escape to Italy.
That’s part of PIZZAMANIA’s charm. While pizza lovers can enjoy their favorites, other guests can explore a varied Italian menu. So, choose your favorite dishes, gather your friends and enjoy the evening.
