Roman-style pizza
ARTISANAL BREAD
handmade cheese
voted best pizza in northern virginia by Northern virgina magazine!
At Stracci Pizza, we are committed to craftsmanship, seasonal ingredients, and high-quality cooking.
Our pizzas are made in a Roman style with high-hydration dough that is naturally fermented at cold temperatures for 72 hours. The long fermentation process combined with special dough handling and baking “alla pala” (directly on the hearth) result in a crust that is crisp, light and airy.
To make our signature (and namesake) stracciatella cheese, we hand-pull fresh mozzarella then tatter and soak it in cream.
Our artisanal breads are mixed by hand and baked fresh daily. We change our menu with the seasons to showcase products from the finest farms and purveyors.
What started as a takeout only pizza trailer has grown into a dynamic neighborhood restaurant.
in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, WE CONVERTED A 20-FOOT TRAILER INTO A FUNCTIONAL RESTAURANT KITCHEN TO OPEN STRACCI PIZZA.
