The 4,200 square foot, vibrant restaurant welcomes Campania tradition throughout this inspired new location that seats 160, giving visibility to guests of the signature wood-burning oven where they can watch their pizzas being masterfully prepared. The restaurant's center also features a mozzarella high table, similar to that of a traditional Italian deli, combined with a unique and beautiful style.
Fratelli La Bufala invites guests to feel at home with delicious main menu favorites including Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, homemade ricotta gnocchi, Grass Fed Angus Beef “Arizona Burger,” Parmigiana in Carrozza, deep fried eggplant parmigiana ball served with tomato sauce, and fresh basil, Cannoli, crispy wafers filled with ricotta cheese and dark chocolate and pistachio and almonds and Croccantino Caprese, couscous deep fried fior di latte mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, and EVOO served on a bed of arugula.
