Are you tired of all the same old pizzas that require blotting with a paper towel in order to make it “healthy”? Well, if so, Settobello Pizzeria Napoletana, located in downtown Salt Lake City, is the place for you!

From the Settebello website:

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana was created in 2005 to bring an authentic Napoli style pizza to the Las Vegas area. Owner Brad Otton was trained as a pizzaiolo in Napoli by renowned pizzaiolo Enzo Coccia.

Signore Coccia was one of the original founding members of the Vera Pizza Napoletana organization created to preserve the history and integrity of the Napoletana pizza making process.

Settebello is only one of 250 VPN certified restaurants in the United States.

The VPN charter requires that members use only specific raw ingredients to create the pizza dough, that the dough be worked with the hands, never using a rolling pin and that it be cooked directly on the surface of a bell-shaped pizza oven fueled solely by wood. The charter also requires specific types of tomatoes be used and only the use of fresh milk or buffalo milk mozzarella is acceptable.

Settebello also uses a brick oven, which was imported from Italy, to cook all their pizzas. This means it only takes 60-90 seconds for each pizza to cook! That is one fast pizza oven. I like to call that the Apolo Ohno of pizza ovens.

The pizzas range in price from $7.99-$12.99. Settebello also makes their own gelato and boasts many different flavors of gelato and Sorbetti.
