What is the story of the Oven?
During the summer of 2011, the owner became an apprentice at a pizzeria in Napels.

He learned how to finetune his knowledge and skills. He handpicked the glass tiles with copper inserts for the authentic Neapolitan Pizza Bocca Lupo oven.

Il forno was built by a third generation Neapolitan pizza-oven building family.

It took three months to get the oven shipped from Naples to the port of Oakland. Just in time for the opening of San Pedro Square Market on September 15, 2011!

What is the Temperature of the oven?
The oven runs at around 900 Fahrenheit. The pizza bakes in about 90 seconds. It is solely powered by almond wood.
