Papaiolo: Authentic Neapolitan Pizza in the Heart of Prague
Discover the authentic taste of Naples in Prague's heart. At Papaiolo, we craft each pizza as a true work of art, guided by our love for Italian tradition and quality. Our team, led by a Pizza DOC World Championship participant and Accademia Nazionale Pizza DOC member, brings expertise and passion to every dish.
Watch our skilled pizzaiolos prepare each pizza in our wood-fired oven heated to 840°F, creating perfectly crispy pizzas with soft centers in just 60-90 seconds. We use premium Italian flour, left to rise 24 hours, San Marzano tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella. From classic Margherita to championship-worthy specialties like Pizza Burrata e Guanciale, every bite transports you to Italy.
Beyond pizza, our menu features traditional Italian pasta: creamy Spaghetti Carbonara, Lasagna Bolognese, and spicy Fileja con 'nduja. Complete your meal with authentic Italian desserts and our curated selection of Italian Prosecco, wines, and beers.
Located steps from Imperial & Cosmopolitan hotels and Palladium Shopping Mall, Papaiolo is perfect for romantic dinners, business lunches, or gatherings with friends. Open daily, kids welcome with our special children's menu.
