Frequently Asked Questions
Neapolitan & AVPN
What makes your pizza "Neapolitan‑style"?
Training in Naples, Italy, completed AVPN coursework, 00 flour, long fermentation, hand‑stretching dough, and 900°F wood‑fired bakes (pizzas bake in 60–90 seconds).
Are you AVPN‑certified?
Yes—Amalfi Pizza became Georgia's first AVPN‑certified member; our kitchens follow AVPN standards daily. (Certification is brand‑level, and standards apply to all locations.)

Why is the center softer than American‑style pizza? Can I request crispier?
True Neapolitan pies are soft in the center with a tender air filled cornicione. If you prefer more char or structure, ask for a slightly longer bake—we'll accommodate when possible.
What flour and dough process do you use?
Italian "00" flour; sea salt, fresh yeast and slow fermentation; hand‑stretching—never rolled—so the rim stays airy.
What oven do you bake in?
Traditional Stefano Ferrara and Acunto Mario, high‑heat, wood‑fired ovens (~900°F), which gives the leopard‑spotted crust.
