• Pizzeria • Montclair
Booked 11 times today
At Bivio our passion is authentic Neapolitan pizza. Napoli... our love of the city, its cuisine, and in particular, its pizza is where our story began. We heard time and time again “It’s all about the dough.” True to Neapolitan tradition, and the passion of the pizzaioli, we construct our pizza using “00” flour from Naples, San Marzano DOP tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, fresh basil, fior di latte or bufala mozzarella, and sea salt. Our dough is gently mixed using a 28 year old “lieveto madre” (natural yeast culture) then with intense heat is baked in our wood burning il forno. At Bivio all of our dishes are made with the freshest and highest quality ingredients.

    Outstanding food (been a client for 5 years & quality has always been even, just with excellent additions and improvements); excellent, friendly service, never rushed to leave. Close by, validated parking a definite plus in this area. Great that they offer half-bottles of wine too. What’s not to like?
