Sicilian classics benefit from local and organic flavors at this bustling Santa Rosa pizza stop.. In Short
With a new home in the Creekside Center, John Franchetti (formerly of Tra Vigne) is dishing up his cult-worthy thin crusts once again. Decor is minimal: Vintage Italian posters boast bright images of soccer and spirits while a hand-written chalkboard displays seasonal highlights. Drooling patrons, who relish puffy, blistered pizzas from the wood-burning oven, brave long waits. Pies come with or without sauce, but all arrive with flavorful combos such as caramelized sweet onions, sausage and swiss chard or proscuitto, olives and fried egg. Other menu mainstays include fresh tapenades, locally sourced salads, and hand-crafted charcuterie.
