Bacini's on Kloof

Bacini's began in Johannesburg in 1989 under founder Raimondo Napoli and has run in Cape Town's Gardens since the mid-1990s; his daughter Della now operates the Kloof Street restaurant, which has kept its pizza menu deliberately unchanged through a 2020 renovation even as the rest of the menu evolved. It is a family-transmission story the business tells about itself, not one assembled from outside coverage.

177 Kloof Street, Gardens, Cape Town, 8001 · Cape Town · Neapolitan · est. 1994
