If you thought pizza was just pepperoni and cheese, allow Capitale Pizzeria to completely shift your mindset. Nestled in the vibrant Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, this Black girl travel approved pizzeria is where high-end dining meets worldwide flavor served hot from a fire oven.
This isn’t your local corner slice shop. Think passport of pizzas named after iconic cities around the world. Whether you’re a traveler or a foodie, this is the kind of spot that turns dinner into an international experience.
A Pizza Passport: Global Flavors in Every Slice
Each pizza is a tribute to a city curated with ingredients and vibes to match. A few must-tries:
The Napoli: The OG Margherita with creamy Fior di Latte, tomato sauce, and fresh basil is simple, elegant, and straight outta Naples.
The Capri: Mediterranean and mood setting. Fresh tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, black olive tapenade, and olive oil come together for something light, fresh, and sexy.
The Madrid: Spanish-inspired with pancetta, thin sliced potatoes, rosemary, and that smoky paprika kiss.
The Amalfi: A beach day on a pizza homemade ricotta, lemon zest, roasted zucchini, and confit garlic that tastes like sunshine.
And yes, everything is baked to perfection in a proper wood-fired oven. You can taste the authenticity in every bite.
Authentic Roots, Innovative Soul
The owners? Straight from Italy (and Brazil’s largest Italian community). Founder Rodrigo Parisi and his team of seasoned restaurateurs and chefs some from Seattle favorites like Limoncello and La Fontana Siciliana built this place not just to serve pizza, but to tell stories through food.
And baby, it tells them well believe me.
The Experience: Elevated
The ambiance? Warm, modern, and inviting. Whether you’re pulling up for date night or sliding in with your girls for a food tour, this spot checks all the boxes.
They also serve bomb homemade focaccia that’s worth the trip alone.
