Whether you prefer thin-crust or deep-dish, margherita or pepperoni, these 5 Pizza Restaurants in Adyar serve up the best slices in Adyar. I went on a pizza tour to bring you reviews on ambiance and specialty pies at each spot. Read on for where to find fab pizza in the neighborhood.
La Pizzeria
Focusing on authentic wood-fired pizza in a casual trattoria style setting, La Pizzeria offers pizzas true to the Naples tradition. The bubbly, charred crust has just the right amount of chewiness and goes well with a variety of toppings. I’d highly recommend the Parma with tomato sauce, mozzarella, arugula, and generous shavings of Parmesano Reggiano cheese. For a white pizza, the tartufata with truffle paste, mushrooms, and burrata cheese provides a decadent combination. La Pizzeria also serves freshly rolled pasta, tiramisu, and wines by the glass.
Little Italy
Bringing a piece of Italy to Adyar, Little Italy has checkered tablecloths, Italian music playing, and servers greeting you with “buongiorno” and “grazie.” The pizza arrives with blistered edges from the brick oven. We loved the pasta e fagioli soup followed by the pizza Diavola with spicy salami and fruity extra virgin olive oil. The quattro formaggi is a crowd-pleaser with its blend of Italian cheeses. And save room for the creamy, frozen panna cotta. Little Italy offers a full experience of Italian comfort food and hospitality.
The Brick Oven
Specializing in custom pizzas baked in a coal-fired brick oven, Brick Oven allows you to choose your own adventure pizza with a variety of crusts, sauces, cheeses and toppings. Going here with a group? You can order individual pizzas to suit everyone’s tastes. The tomato sauce was tangy, the veggies fresh, and the meat toppings tasted premium. Don’t miss their signature Garlic Bread Basket loaded with cheese and herbs. Brick Oven provides great value by letting you build your dream pizza just the way you like it.
Magnum Opus Pizzeria
This hip pizzeria decorated with cool murals has an open kitchen so you can watch the pizza makers expertly tossing, spinning, and dressing the pies. Known for artisanal pizza made from the freshest ingredients, Magnum Opus offers creative signature pizzas like the Popeye pie with spinach, olives, feta and red onion or the Charcuterie overloaded with all the meats. The crust is impressively light yet crispy and can handle generous toppings without getting soggy. Enjoy this gourmet pizza along with Italian sodas or local craft beers in a lively, casual setting.
Rhapsody
For special occasion dining, visit Rhapsody at the ITC Grand Chola Hotel. White glove service and upscale surroundings provide a luxurious backdrop as you enjoy creative Neapolitan-style pizzas fired in an oak and beechwood burning oven. The classic Margherita hits all the right notes but we also enjoyed pies topped with duck sausage, figs and blue cheese. Complete the high-end experience by indulging in Rhapsody’s decadent tiramisu or panna cotta. When only the finest pizza and ambiance will do, book your table at Rhapsody.
