Book NowAbout Gigi Pizzeria
Wood-fired Neapolitan pizza with zero animal products and zero compromises. Regulars bring their most skeptical omnivore friends here—watching them fold a blistered slice, cornicione intact, and forget dairy was ever an ingredient. Thin, chewy rounds emerge from the wood oven layered with San Marzano tomatoes and house-made ricotta, flanked by baked trays of bechamel lasagne. The dining room runs on walk-ins, high volume, and swift QR-code table orders, wrapping up over plates of vegan tiramisu.
- 100% Plant-Based Neapolitan Crusts: Wood-fired pies mimic traditional Naples texture with blistered, airy crusts and savory toppings that routinely fool dedicated carnivores.
- Beloved Menu Staples: Crowds pack the dining room for house classics like the Sporcaccione and Regina with San Marzano tomatoes, rounded out by vegan tiramisu and lasagne.
- Bustling High-Energy Dining: King Street buzz meets rapid-fire hospitality, turning tables quickly via smooth digital ordering.
