It's possibly the trendiest pizza restaurant in all of Vancouver. Mount Pleasant welcomes Sprezzatura with open arms.

When it comes to interior design, Sprezzatura must be the masters. They've filled their gigantic space with glossy tiled floors, whitewashed walls, potted plants and everything from bar stools to industrial metal chairs and benches with swathes of plump cushions. Top it all off with exposed metal pipes and Scandinavian lighting, and you have yourself an urban Italian bistro.

Before tucking into your pizza, why not warm your stomach with some mouth-watering Italian meatballs doused in fresh tomatoes or indulge yourself with their burrata and prosciutto. Make it a family affair with some sharing antipasti and lose yourself to the tangy homemade pickles, truffle salami, and gorgonzola, plus many more goodies.

Sprezzatura doesn't follow the crowd with wafer-thin crispy pizzas – they favour authentic Verache Pizza Napoletana dough with soft, soupy centres. On the menu are the classic toppings plus a few wildcards, like the roasted pork belly, porcini mushroom and Italian sausage with rapini. Pizza horizons are meant to be broadened after all.
