Authentic Pizza Fritta in Sydney — The Neapolitan Original, Done Right
At Pizza Fritta 180, we’ve built Sydney’s most dedicated home of Neapolitan fried pizza — and we’re obsessed with doing it properly. Every pizza fritta starts with slow-fermented dough, packed with fresh Italian fillings, sealed tight and flash-fried at exactly 180°C until golden, crispy and completely irresistible.
This isn’t fast food — it’s Italian street food crafted with care. Molten centres, crisp edges, bold flavour: one bite and you’ll understand why Neapolitan pizza fritta has become Sydney’s most talkedabout fried pizza. From our classic Margherita to inventive seasonal fillings, every bite is a flavour hit.
And when you’re ready to explore beyond the fritta, our full menu spans traditional baked pizza, antipasti, buffalo mozzarella, housemade pasta, fresh salads, and decadent desserts. Gluten-free pizza options available. Wash it all down with handcrafted cocktails, Italian wines and cold beers.

What Is Pizza Fritta? The Neapolitan Street Food Taking Sydney by Storm
Pizza fritta (literally “fried pizza”) is one of Naples’ oldest and most beloved street foods. Unlike traditional baked pizza, pizza fritta dough is loaded with fillings — ricotta, mozzarella, cured meats, seasonal vegetables — then sealed by hand and flash-fried until puffed, golden and irresistibly crispy on the outside.
At Pizza Fritta 180, we fry at exactly 180°C — the precise temperature that creates a light, non-greasy crust with a molten, flavour-packed centre. The result? A fried pizza that’s airy, crunchy and rich without being heavy.
It’s comfort food with technique behind it. And once you’ve tried it, regular pizza just doesn’t cut it.
What Surry Hills Diners Are Saying About Our Pizza Fritta
Great food people and atmosphere. 5/5. Best gluten free pizza I’ve had and gluten free pasta 🙏🏻
The fried pizza was delish, loads of cheese inside, and there was a whole variety of pizzas and drinks to choose from. A lot of people were waiting for takeaways too,
The atmo of the outdoor table where we sat was lively and loud but in a pleasant way. All of the staffs were very friendly and attentive.
We had a great evening guys, hope to visit again! :)
Be sure to try the 1m pizza!
Visited in a busy Saturday night as a walk in - I’d recommend booking here as it was very busy!
We had a red pizza & a white pizza. The red pizza was good, nice dough & generous toppings. The white pizza was lacklustre - probably our mistake for ordering it but it just didn’t hit the spot.
We ordered bolognese Arancini and olives to start, both were good but came after the pizzas had arrived. The staff were friendly and accommodating.
I’ll be visiting again to try the one metre pizza with a group of friends!
Service was amazing, we had this friendly lady with dark hair with a beautiful Italian accent.
Very impressed with the food, location and staff.
I will definitely be returning!
