Z Pizza Raleigh

Bakers at zpizza toss up fresh dough and organic ingredients daily to create a menu of toothsome trattoria favorites and a plethora of pizzas, many with options that keep vegans and the gluten-shy in the crusty, bubbly loop. Layer a dough foundation with organic tomato sauce, vegan or skim mozzarella from grass-fed cows, additive-free sausage and meatballs, and other select toppings to create your own appetizing architecture ($7.25+). Chicken, cilantro, and sweet corn baste in tangy sauce on a large ZBQ pizza ($19.95), and rustica pizzas ($8.95 each) proffer atypical combinations such as the Moroccan's pesto-smothered mix of roasted eggplant, caramelized onion, and pine nuts. A range of sandwiches and calzones ($6.95), pastas ($7.50), and large salads ($8.50–$8.95) round out zpizza's offerings, filling midsections with semicircular, tubular, and geometrically undefined edibles. Patrons can enjoy their food on zpizza's outdoor patio, located next to a serene water fountain, and catch live music on select days.
