help Bonci FAQ

How does ordering pizza at Bonci's Pizzarium work?

Pizzarium serves Roman pizza al taglio from large rectangular trays. Customers choose a flavor and portion size, then the piece is cut with scissors and sold by weight.

Where is the original Bonci pizzeria in Rome?

Gabriele Bonci opened Pizzarium near the Vatican in 2003. It is on Via della Meloria, close to the Cipro Metro station.

What makes Bonci's crust different from Neapolitan pizza?

Bonci specializes in airy, long-fermented pizza baked in rectangular trays rather than the round, quickly baked pies associated with Naples. The sturdier base supports changing seasonal toppings and is typically crisp underneath.

Is Bonci mainly a sit-down restaurant?

Pizzarium is primarily a counter-service pizza-by-the-slice shop, not a conventional table-service pizzeria. Its format is better suited to selecting several small portions than ordering one whole round pizza.
