ABOUT US

our start

Pizzeria Verità opened in Burlington, Vermont in 2012. We are a full service Neapolitan pizzeria with a focus on exceptional Italian cuisine, inspired craft cocktails, and a well-informed, engaging staff.

We make our pizzas in the traditional Neapolitan technique, which involves pushing out a light, thin crust, taking care to push air into the cornicione, or edge, then topping each dough with just the right amount of fresh ingredients and finally baking the pizza in a very hot wood-fired oven. All the flavors come together in that short baking time resulting in a tasty balance with no dominant flavors: a unique characteristic of traditional Neapolitan pizza. The majority of our toppings come from local sources here in Vermont, which stems from a commitment to supporting our local farmers and food producers and our dedication to the Neapolitan tradition. 

our commitments

Our mission is To push the boundaries, share our strength, minimize our environmental impact, and to be a sustainable, profitable, employee-centered business.

We Aim to source the highest quality Italian imports and the freshest ingredients from our local farming partners to make our authentic Neapolitan pizza. Our bar program is one part creativity, one part classic technique and one part boldness.  Service is at our core.
