Pizzaiolo, Portland

For over 30 years, pizza makers at Pizzaiolo have been mastering the secrets of homemade pizzas. And all these years of experience show in the menu of their authentic New York-style pizzeria. Among a variety of their specialty pizzas, chefs serve the White Stone pizza, which features creamy and whole-milk mozzarella cheese topped with lots of freshly chopped garlic, parmesan, and ricotta. Their Blueberry BBQ chicken, on the other hand, blends spicy Maine blueberry barbecue sauce with morsels of slow-roasted chicken and wild Maine blueberries. At Pizzaiolo it's not all about pizza, chefs also serve a wide selection of salads and Mama’s Meatball Sub with hand-rolled garlicky meatballs and tomato sauce.
