Blending Southern Italian tradition and Southern California flavors, Pizzana redefines classic Neapolitan pizza with radical flavor interpretations such as Neo Margherita and Cacio e Pepe pizzas.
DANIELE UDITI
An artisan who learned his craft growing up in Naples, Italy, Daniele incorporates his training from some of the best pizzerias in Campania with his family bakery’s traditional bread recipes. Since his arrival to Los Angeles in 2010, his signature “slow dough” Neo Neapolitan pizzas have garnered a passionate international following of celebrities and pizza lovers.

It all began at Chris and Caroline O’donnell’s Sunday night pizza parties. It was at their home that the Nelsons met Daniele and where the idea for Pizzana was first born.
