Gino Sorbillo, Neapolitan pizzeria near Duomo, Milan, Italy.
Gino Sorbillo is a pizzeria in Milan that serves Neapolitan pizza baked in a wood-fired oven following recipes from Naples. The kitchen is open to the dining area, so guests can watch the dough being shaped and the pizzas going into the oven.
The Sorbillo family began making pizza in Naples over 100 years ago and became one of the most recognized names in Neapolitan pizza. Opening a location in Milan brought their southern tradition to a northern Italian city for the first time.
The restaurant displays Neapolitan craft daily as pizzamakers work in front of guests, following time-honored techniques passed down through their family. For many visitors, this is their first encounter with authentic pizza prepared in the traditional way.
The space is small and attracts many visitors, so a wait outside before being seated is common. Going slightly before or after the main meal hours tends to reduce the time spent waiting.
The Sorbillo family in Naples had 21 children, and nearly all of them opened their own pizzeria, earning them a reputation as a true pizza dynasty. The Milan location is one branch of this extended family story, not simply a copy of a single original restaurant.
