What’s the Deal with this Wood-Fired Pizza?

Ciao Pizza is all about that Italian-meets-Mzansi charm. Quality ingredients, great flavours, and a cosy space that smells like heaven as soon as you walk in. We visited their Blouberg branch, which is conveniently located near the beach (read: perfect for a pre- or post-pizza stroll) and surrounded by a few other gems too. They’ve also got a branch in the CBD.

What We Ordered (And Loved)

We went in hungry and left happy. Here’s what made our shortlist:

• Pepperoni Pizza – Crisp base, punchy flavour, and perfectly balanced cheese-to-sauce ratio
• Salsiccia Calzone – Filled with beef sausages, creamy onions, and mushrooms. Honestly? The ultimate comfort food.
• Bubblegum Frappe Milkshake – Refreshing, sweet, and perfect to cool things down after all that melted cheese 😅

💡 Their menu also has breakfast and lunch options, so you’re covered no matter what time of day you go.

Whether you’re into classics or want to try something new like a calzone or unique milkshake flavour, there’s something for everyone, even the picky eaters in your crew. Already tried it? Let us know your go-to pizza in the comments.If not, this is your sign to go!
