Authentic Naples Pizza & Calzone Class: Hands-on, Wine & Dessert

Nice evening and we were lucky enough to have it turn out to be a private session as we booked in the low season. Everything about the event was well done. We were able to make the dough and learn from a master pizza maker. Fun for all.

We were lucky to have a private class and enjoyed every minute of the experience. From understanding the ingredients, the process, the background and the heritage of the pizza we learned a lot! Not only did we learn a lot we ate a lot!! The pizza was so good and the surprise dessert over the top!!

We really enjoyed our pizza making class with Lucia. It was a lot of fun and our pizzas were delicious! She shared the recipe with us, we definitely want to make it again!

Our pizza-making class with Francesca and Maurizio was absolutely unforgettable! Francesca was a wonderful host — welcoming, organized, and full of local insights — while Maurizio, our pizzaiolo, was a true master of his craft. He guided us step-by-step through the process of making authentic Neapolitan pizza, from mixing the dough to shaping it and baking it to perfection. We loved how hands-on and interactive the class was, and how both Francesca and Maurizio made it fun, relaxed, and full of laughter. We learned so much about the traditions behind Naples’ most famous dish, and of course, eating our own creations at the end was the best reward! We also had a yummy dessert at the end. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Naples — it’s a perfect mix of culture, cooking, and delicious fun.

It was a really nice, educational and recommendable evening. From making to eating, everything was there that you wanted. You got very precise information about ingredients (where they came from, why you shouldn't use buffalo mozzarella, etc.), technical data up to the technique itself (kneading, pulling, portioning and stretching). The pizza master is a magician (also has a lot of experience) and our translator Lucia has translated everything, told us again exactly what to look out for and answered every question you had. I was able to take a lot from the course and the subsequent meal also gave the whole thing a round and relaxed conclusion. It is highly recommended!

Erika was an excellent hostess for the class. The pizzaiolo was an excellent teacher. The pizas were delicious.

Class was fun, instructor and facilitator were kind and helpful. Pizza was amazing and they explained every step of the process as well as other things we could do with the dough.

Our tour consisted of my wife and our two great friends - all over the age of 65. Our host’s English was very good and she took the time to make sure everyone understood her. All four of us had a great time making our pizzas. There was a lot of laughing and kidding on who was making the best pizza.

Lots of fun!! Very informative and I feel confident in recreating our pizza when we get home. It was awesome being able to cook in a real pizzeria!!

We arrived at the restaurant early/told them we had the class, but offered to sit outside/no drinks (we waited/drank at a location across the street). Riccardo was ~15 mins late, but did give notification via WhatsApp. Initially we were a lit perturbed, but all changed upon meeting him - super nice, informative, helpful. It was a bit awkward at first making the dough in the middle of the restaurant, but that passed as we mixed, kneaded, folded, wrapped the dough; our daughter loved it! Frederico, The pizza man, showed us as Riccardo explained; he even made our daughter's pizza into a heart. The best part was by far eating our pizzas, drinking wine & having homemade tiramisu! I highly recommend!
