I liked that the pizza was cooked in a wood-fired oven, and you can really taste the difference it makes. The pizza was cooked very well and the service was fast. I had the Siciliano pizza, while my friends ordered the Napoletana, and I tasted both. The olives on the Napoletana were a bit too salty for my taste โ soaking them in water beforehand could help reduce the saltiness. Personally, I preferred the Siciliano pizza and would recommend it. Overall, I was satisfied with the priceโperformance. That said, I still havenโt had a truly exceptional pizza in Sydney โ the search continuesโฆ ๐
A good dough and very well topped. I recommend the Bufalina. Perhaps a bit more expensive than others in the area. ๐๐๐Also suitable for those with dietary needs (gluten- or dairy-free).
๐ A Neapolitan Delight in Darlinghurst! I had the pleasure of dining at Lucio Pizzeria last night, and it was an outstanding experience. I enjoyed an absolutely delicious Neapolitan pizza: the dough was thin, light, perfectly baked, and the toppings were fresh and carefully selected. The welcome was warm, the service impeccable, and the atmosphere very pleasant. Kudos to the kitchen, to the restaurant, and to the entire team ๐ For dessert, I had a vanilla panna cotta with a strawberry coulis โ a real treat to end a perfect meal. Iโll definitely recommend this spot to all my French friends visiting Sydney. Many thanks again, and see you soon !
Lucio's pizzeria is without a doubt one of Australia's top pizza restaurants and a staple each time we are visiting Sydney city! Coming from a pizza fanatic who is on a never ending quest to master the craft of pizza making. If you love true Neapolitan pizza or are interested in trying it, Lucio and he's team will definitely deliver you the authentic experience! Pizza is always cooked to perfection and the service is very friendly and welcoming. We asked if we can get each pizza served to us one by one so we can experience the most freshly cooked pizzas possible and the chef and waiter catered to our request. Lucio himself is the vice president of the AVPN which is an organisation that teaches and protects the art and traditions of true Neapolitan pizza making. The crust of the pizza has that crispy outer layer with the soft, airy cloud texture inside. The base of the pizza has a nice even char. All the toppings are fresh, simple and perfectly balanced which is what you are looking for when you are experiencing this quality pizza. And one of the biggest details is that the chef's cook pizza inside the woodfire oven at the correct temperature which ensures the pizza comes out on your plate the correct colour and texture. Come try Lucio's pizza! An extremely satisfying experience!
Very nice hidden Italian place! The waiter was very nice with us. To start, we had the burrata, which was really good and the eggplant gave it a different but special touch; the only thing I would change it was that it could have some focaccia to go with. Then we tried the campagnolia and the truffle pizzas. For me, the campagnolia was amazing! The cheese was super good, and I switch the sausages for hot salami (I loved it!). The pizza was neapolitan style - amazing; and the dough was super soft. To end the meal, a tiramisรบ, which was really balanced and tasty. Really nice hidden gem in Sydney.
