- Most commonly served in an oval shape
- Fermentation for pinsa ranges from 48 to 72 hours
- The dough uses more water than standard pizza dough
- Thinner and lighter in texture
- Pinsa dough is pressed and flattened by hand
Pizza Differences

Trusted by Many, Loved by All
Cozy spot with super friendly staff! The mushroom soup was warm and rich, the pesto pasta was fresh and tasty, and the pepperoni pizza hit the spot. Definitely worth a visit! Armin “Mczat” Jahromi Loved the authentic pizza Devangi 28 Horrible service. Very slow, disorganized waitress. Food was overcooked, extremely tough/dry, too salty and too oily. We didn’t finish our food. Didn’t have the opportunity to tell the server it was horrible either because she ignored us. Don’t recommend. Try literally anywhere else in yorkville EP Fantastic experience! Delicious Italian food and a cozy ambiance. Parinaz was the highlight—so kind and attentive. We’ll be back! Setareh Ghorbani Incredible food, perfect service. Parinaz was amazing. 10/10 experience! Mohi Mh Small family run restaurant. I actually love that the menu is very small yet has everything. You can have chicken beef or seafood pasta. Everyone was great, the food portions were just right, enough meats and carbs. It was a filling meal. DD LittleButterfly You have to update your hours here on Google maps, we came from far away to eat and it was closed. Disappointing. Raphael Manduca
