a takeout window pizzeria
wood fired pizza and soft serve
naturally leavened dough • locally sourced, organic ingredients
located in the cargo district, salita pizza simply serves pizza.
A love of food and decades of experience in the industry has led us to open our own shop with the intention of serving the food we like - simple, unpretentious, organic, and delicious.
Made by hand + in-house, our naturally leavened dough made with local, organic flour, in our wood fired oven, creates a thin pie with bubbly crust. Please don’t ask us to name our style; we simply make pizza.
All pies are hand stretched to be about 10”.
*dough and all food items are prepared with RO water & 100% organic olive oil

We need your help!
salita pizza is a tip-less establishment.
In our opinion (and many others), it’s about time this awkward clash of power, money, judgement, and work has been removed from the industry. If you do insist on leaving a bit of cash, we will know you appreciate what we do and that money will be divided equally among all employees, both kitchen and counter.
