Pizzeria Della Nonna, Italian pizzeria in central Brasov, Romania
Pizzeria Della Nonna is an Italian restaurant in central Brasov, Romania, serving wood-fired pizzas, pasta, grilled dishes, and salads. The kitchen follows traditional Italian methods, with pizzas baked directly in a wood oven.
The restaurant is part of a wave of Italian eateries that spread through Romanian cities from the 2000s onward, bringing wood-fired pizza to Transylvania. Brasov was one of the first cities in the region where this style of cooking found a lasting place.
The name "Della Nonna" means "of the grandmother" in Italian, which reflects the homey, familiar style of the food served here. The menu draws on recipes that feel rooted in Italian home kitchens rather than formal restaurant traditions.
The restaurant is in central Brasov, easy to reach on foot or by public transport from most parts of the city. It takes both dine-in and delivery orders, which gives some flexibility depending on your plans.
The wood-fired oven is visible from parts of the dining area, so guests can watch the pizzas being baked rather than simply waiting for the result. This kind of open preparation is still uncommon in Brasov.
