Classic wood fired pizza made from 72-hour dough and stone milled flour. It was late 2016 when Lorenzo Tron and Roberto Davoli opened their humble pizzeria, Shop225, in Pascoe Vale South. The suburban pizzeria has already attracted a cult following of locals and people across town with its simple Italian ethos, vegan and gluten free offering.
Our recommendation: 4 Formaggi pizza (Fior di latte, smoked scamorza, gorgonzola and grana padano).
This Preston insitute is a two-in-one concept from the people who brought us Dexter – a takeaway pizza shop serving delicious American style pizza for pick-up or delivery and a friendly neighbourhood cocktail bar serving late night slices.
Our recommendation: Order the Mortadella & Honey pizza and take a seat outside.

Authentic Neapolitan cuisine with a hint of Melbourne, that’s 400 Gradi. Home to the award-winning margherita pizza and oh-so-sweet pizze dolce.
Our recommendation: The Golden Marghertita. Their award winning pizza has turned gold. Think gold crust, gold basil, gold mozzarella and more gold.
Woodfire Pizzeria & Cucina has been part of Ivanhoe’s dining and lifestyle culture since 1999. From its humble beginnings at 91 Upper Heidelberg Road, it underwent a massive change in October 2016. Finding its new home at the state-of-the-art building located at 199 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe. Using premium locally sourced and Italian ingredients that compliment an age-old Neapolitan recipe, the end result is an artisan-style wood-fired pizza that is truly something indescribable.
Our recommendation: Basil and Friends (name of pizza) – Basil pesto, fior di latte, pork sausage, eggplant, chili and fresh basil
