Best pizza in Durham hands down. Probably the best pizza I have ever had. This is the americano pizza and Verona salad. You will not be disappointed

Fantastic! Truly the best pizza I've had in a long time. I was genuinely and pleasantly surprised - this place is legit. My wife and I shared a Bianca and it was quite possibly life changing. Also, the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend.

Great Italian pizza in a welcoming setting, with a next door brewery, ice cream and others.

Best Pizza in the Triangle! And for an Italian to find a good pizza in the area is not easy! The quality of the ingredients is superb! The Margherita is my favorite, but every pizza tastes amazing! The pizza ovens are even imported from Italy! Service is great and everyone is very friendly. Buon Appetito!

This place was absolutely a great resteraunt. Authentic brick oven pizzas handmade. Next time I'm back in Durham, I will be stopping by.

Yum, yum, yum. I’m an American that has never been to Italy, however, this pizza was what I expect authentic pizza to taste like. The guys throwing the pizza in the air was enough confirmation that they mean business. It was such a large pizza! Whenever you gotta fold your pizza and juices fall out that bih, you know you’re in for treat. Absolutely flavorful. Check this place out!

Cugino Forno is located in the Golden Belt Campus and serves up delicious Neopolitan-style pizza, salads and dessert. My favorite is the Margarita pizza- it is SO good!!! It is a casual restaurant with a big inside seating area with large communal tables and also some outdoor seating. There is also a large grassy area for kids to run around. A fun place to hang out with family and friends.

Great spot for Napoli pizza in Durban’s Golden Belt campus. Ultra thin crispy pizza the way I like with a slight char. We loved their Blanco, Funghi, and Marinara pizzas! Wish that they had options with beef and chicken, but they are amazing none the less! Also, their salads are extremely fresh and taste amazing! By far the best salads I’ve had at a pizza spot. Their desserts are really good too, tried the tiramisu and berry fruit tart. Check out @raleating on Instagram & TikTok for recommendations on Triangle food spots!

Deliciously authentic pizza! I got the americano and it was so fresh and well made even though the kitchen was just about to close for the night. Definitely will be back again

I've finally found it, best pizza in Durham! That's if you're looking for a true Neapolitan pie. I highly recommend dining in, as the best way to enjoy this type of pizza is straight out of the oven. Take out is still great but just not perfection. Also recommend the salads, they're enormous, delicious, and really a steal at their price

The pizzas here were one of the most authentic I've had. The crust is perfectly made, and baked using wood fired grills...
