It’s hard to beat a traditional Italian pizza isn’t it?

Like the Quattro Stagioni version at Pizzeria La Prima with quality mozzarella, shaved prosciutto, marinated artichokes, olives, mushroom and basil, all on a passata base, cooked into molten goodness and cut into four delectable sections. That’s just one of many on the “Pizze Traditionale” list at this popular Springfield restaurant where Vespa-riding Milanese owner Claudio D’Andrea ensures everything is made from scratch, from the pizza bases to the fresh pasta and sauces.

The handmade gnocchi is a standout, and you can have it with three cheeses or a creamy mushroom sauce. And for dessert, you might want to say ‘I do’ to the house-made tiramisu.

With a great little wine list, regular takeaway specials and even a “Pizze Australien” list (yes, there’s pineapple on the Tropicale), Pizzeria La Prima is the kind of neighbourhood go-to every suburb should be so lucky to have.
