Restaurants Buenos Aires
La Mezzetta
A standing-room pizza stop on Álvarez Thomas rewards a detour with the city’s familiar fugazzetta tradition.
- Location
- Avenida Álvarez Thomas 1321, Buenos Aires
Our take
At La Mezzetta, the lack of tables is part of the point. This pizzeria, founded in 1939, serves thick pan-baked slices to customers who eat standing up, keeping the visit focused on the pizza.
Fugazzetta belongs at the centre of a first order. The city’s guide also records mozzarella, anchovy and napolitana among its traditional versions. Come for a compact food stop rather than a long seated dinner.
