Prompted by my cousin booking her Disney vacation today, Via Napoli popped into my head and I had to let her know that she has to go there. If you’re going to Disney World, then so do you!
Via Napoli is a fairly new restaurant that opened in the Italian section of Epcot. Traditional wood-fired pizza, made with Caputo 00 flour. The reviews I’ve seen of it are fantastic, and I wish I could give a first hand review of it. The last time I was at Disney was before Via Napoli opened.

The delicious pizzas are made with real caputo flour imported from Southern Italy, San Marzano tomatoes, handmade mozzarella and water from a local spring similar to Italy’s Campania region. They are cooked in authentic wood-burning ovens named after the 3 active volcanoes in Italy—Mount Etna, Mount Vesuvius and Stromboli.
To ensure every detail is perfect, Nick Valenti spent time in Naples studying the art of dough, crust, sauce and oven temperatures at the famous pizzerias Da Michele and Trianon.
Via Napoli was created by the renowned Patina Restaurant Group, which also operates the popular Naples Ristorante e Pizzeria at the Disneyland Resort and the Naples 45 Ristorante e Pizzeria in New York City, which was awarded the coveted La Vera Pizza Napoletana certification.
