Discover the Tradition Behind Nutley’s Favourite Wood-Fired Pizza

In a world of fast food and frozen bases, finding a truly unforgettable wood-fired pizza is rare. At La Casa Nutley, we bring genuine Italian flavours to life, starting with every bite of our handcrafted, traditionally made pizza.

Why Wood Fired Pizza Tastes So Different

Not all pizzas are created equal. A wood-fired pizza is about more than just the oven—it’s the craftsmanship behind it:

Fresh dough made daily and left to rest for the perfect rise
Fresh mozzarella and quality toppings that enhance, not overpower
A traditional wood fired oven that cooks each pizza to crispy perfection, delivering a beautifully blistered crust with a subtle smoky finish

Our Story: From Passion to Pizza Perfection

La Casa Nutley is more than just a restaurant, it’s the product of a lifelong passion for Italian cuisine. Our mission is simple: to create a place where people can enjoy fresh, flavourful food and feel completely at home.

From the moment you step through our doors, the warmth of our team, the crackle of the wood fired oven, and the mouth-watering aroma of tomatoes, herbs and baked dough welcome you like family.

Every pizza we serve is made with heart from hand kneading the dough to carefully crafting each plate with pride.
