Here at Calabria Brick-Oven Pizzeria we create something truly special that would allow the world to try authentic pizza. Our pizza dough is made from scratch daily using an old recipe and cold fermented up to 72 hours, giving it time to develop a unique flavor. Our pizzas are 100% handmade to order and baked in our brick wood fire oven at a heat of around 750°F to 850° F degrees. This intense blast of heat locks in all the natural flavors, creating a soft and chewy in the middle and charred crust on the outside. Calabria Brick-Oven Pizzeria is the perfect atmosphere – whether it be a business lunch, date night, a large family celebration, or corporate event. No matter the occasion, we have the perfect space for you. Our full bar provides a vibrant venue for an evening out with friends.

The place is a great atmosphere and it's nice the tables are far enough away from ea h other you don't feel crowded. It did take a VERY long time to get refills on drinks. That was a bit frustrating. And I got the chicken Alfredo that had hardly any chicken on it. There were two pieces about 2" x 2" and then maybe 4 more smaller pieces. For 22$ you'd expect a lot more chicken.
