In the centre of Rome beats
the heart of our
Roman pizza
In the vibrant heart of Rome, a brand was born that has revolutionised the world of pizza restaurants: our Pizzeria Romana. Founded in 1958 in the historic centre of Rome, the Pizzeria Romana brand has turned a passion for pizza into a global entrepreneurial opportunity.
Our franchise offering is aimed at passionate entrepreneurs eager to open a pizza shop that celebrates the tradition of Roman pizza, famous for its crispy, light, and digestible base. Unlike Neapolitan pizza, with its thick crust and soft texture, Roman pizza is characterised by an unmistakable crispiness that makes it a distinctive and highly sought-after product.
The secret to our success lies first and foremost in our focus on quality and the selection of raw materials: local and artisanal products; doughs with slow fermentation and high hydration at 80%, which enhance the features of the organic flours selected.
Over 60 years of experience in the industry have also taught us that the real added value of any business is its people. Therefore, we place particular emphasis on the selection and training of our staff, both in Italy and abroad. Our affiliates receive comprehensive support, ranging from pizza preparation to point-of-sale management, to ensure that every new opening maintains the high standards that distinguish us.
The Pizzeria Romana brand is not just a guarantee of quality; it is a true gastronomic project that boasts prestigious collaborations, such as with the Italian Pizzerias Association (API), and the technical assistance of its President, Angelo Iezzi. It is a journey that begins in the heart of Rome but extends far beyond, bringing the quality and uniqueness of Roman pizza to every corner of the world.
Cosa caratterizza la Pizzeria Romana nel mondo della pizza al taglio
La maggior parte delle pizzerie oggi tende a concentrarsi su una ben nota pizza, un classico del patrimonio culinario italiano apprezzato in tutto il mondo. Sebbene questa scelta sia rispettabile e radicata nella tradizione, lascia poco spazio all’innovazione e alla diversità nel panorama della pizza al taglio.
La nostra Pizzeria Romana nasce proprio da un’ambizione diversa: introdurre e promuovere una specialità meno esplorata ma altrettanto ricca di storia e sapore: la pizza romana! Con la sua particolare croccantezza, leggerezza e varietà di condimenti che rispettano la stagionalità e la freschezza degli ingredienti, la pizza romana rappresenta un’innovazione nel settore, offrendo una valida e intrigante alternativa.
What Makes Our
Roman Pizza
Recipe the Best
La pizza romana è “scrocchiarella” e si distingue per la sua base sottile e incredibilmente croccante. Ma cosa rende la pizza della Pizzeria Romana così speciale? La risposta sta in tre pilastri fondamentali della preparazione: **80% di idratazione**, **72 ore di lievitazione** e l’uso esclusivo di **ingredienti locali**.
L’idratazione dell’impasto è un aspetto fondamentale nella preparazione della pizza romana. Alla Pizzeria Romana, il nostro impasto è realizzato con un’idratazione dell’80%. Questo alto livello di idratazione favorisce una cottura omogenea, dando vita a quella caratteristica croccantezza unica che definisce la vera pizza romana.
Time is also a key ingredient in our recipe for professional Roman-style pizza. By allowing the dough to ferment for 72 hours, we ensure that our pizza is not only light and fluffy but also highly digestible. This lengthy maturation process allows the flavours to fully develop, enhancing the richness of the natural flavours of our organic ingredients. The result? A pizza that delights the palate without weighing it down!
Finally, the authenticity of our crispy pizza also stems from the meticulous selection of ingredients. We only use locally sourced products, organic flours, and organic olive oil because our goal is to offer a pizza that is not only a unique taste experience but also represents healthy and whole food. Additionally, this allows us to support local agriculture and ensure the freshness and quality of the ingredients.
