Lello's Trattoria

Siblings Chiara and Danilo Turilli, third-generation South African-Italian restaurateurs, sell Roman-style pizza al taglio from a trattoria that grew out of a De Waterkant deli and relocated to a purpose-chosen strip of independent Sea Point restaurants on Penarth Road. Their own account of the kitchen names the pizza al taglio as made 'in the traditional Roman style,' alongside bronze-extruded pasta made on site.
