Trattoria Da Piero

A taste of Naples in Madrid

Trattoria Da Piero takes its cues from Naples, where pizza and street food are part of everyday life. The oven is central to the restaurant’s identity, but the menu is broad enough to make a full meal of the visit: antipasti, fresh pasta, risotto, meat dishes, and desserts sit alongside the pizzas. The restaurant says its pizza follows the traditional stages of Neapolitan preparation, giving the crust a more specific identity than a generic Italian-American pie.

Several dishes show how the kitchen brings Italian forms together with ingredients familiar to Madrid diners. Fresh pasta may be filled with scallops, porcini, or oxtail; the pizza list ranges from Margherita and Diavola to combinations with pistachio cream and mortadella. Risotto nero with cuttlefish and shrimp gives the menu another route beyond the oven, while tiramisu and cannoli keep the finish close to Italian tradition.

More than a pizza stop

Trattoria Da Piero works for a quick pizza but rewards diners who look beyond the headline dish. The fresh pasta and chef’s specials change the pace of the meal, and the restaurant makes its menu available for takeout as well as dining in. For people exploring Madrid’s northern neighborhoods, it is a neighborhood trattoria with a clear Neapolitan reference and enough variety for a longer dinner.
