Gigi Pizzeria

Gigi Pizzeria is a traditional Neapolitan wood-fired pizzeria at 379 King Street in Newtown, on the stretch Sydneysiders call Eat Street. Founders Marco and Daniela Matino opened it to bring the freshness and clarity of flavour of Naples to Newtown, and it is one of very few pizzerias in Sydney that are members of the AVPN, the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana or True Neapolitan Pizza Association.

As an AVPN member, Gigi follows the association's very specific rules: hand-stretched dough, traditional toppings and pizza baked in a wood-fired oven, Napoli style. Marco has created a plant-based menu in line with the restaurant's ethics while staying true to traditional Neapolitan pizza, using fresh local produce combined with key ingredients imported from Italy. The pizzeria's loyal following and its features in Sydney good food guides reflect that approach. Gigi is fully licensed and does not accept BYO, it does not take bookings, it is cashless and does not split bills by item, and a 10 percent surcharge applies on public holidays. Catering and gift cards are arranged by email, and orders can also be placed online. Trading hours are Monday to Sunday 5:30 pm to 9:30 pm.
