Book NowAbout Motza Pizza
Castlecrag locals slip into Motza Pizza for chewy, blistering crusts and a refreshingly unhurried suburban table. Long banquets roll out across the dining room and pet-friendly alfresco terrace without the rushed 9pm turnarounds typical of the lower north shore. Crowds gather over antipasti platters piled with burrata, warm marinated olives, and slices of cornicione before moving on to prawn-rich pasta and pizza. Evening winds down outside over house gelato.
- Alfresco Dining & Gelato Bar: An outdoor terrace welcomes dogs and families with a dedicated children's gelato counter.
- Group Feasts Without Rushing: Accommodates sports teams and birthday gatherings with shared antipasti, pasta, and pizza spreads.
