About Braci

Skip the trek across the bridge—North Willoughby turns out serious wood-fired pizza without the downtown commute. Dough hits the deck and puffs into a blistered cornicione with char underneath. Tables around the room gravitate toward the hot salami finished with honey, but the move is burrata pooled in salumi XO oil for dragging crusts through. Share a bowl of house gin pasta, soak in the room's hum, and finish by splitting a slice of tiramisu.

  • Wood-Fired Crusts: Blistered, chewy bases with a light char, topped with balanced profiles like fiery hot salami cut with honey.
  • House Burrata & Salumi XO: Tear-and-dip burrata paired with a savory salumi XO oil, alongside crisp Brussels sprouts and arancini.
  • Neighborhood Hospitality: Warm, polished hospitality that welcomes spontaneous counter drops-ins, date nights, and noisy family groups alike.
