Nonno Leo tells a story of transmission, a love of Neapolitan savoir-faire shaped by time. Julia and Romain, who founded this La Rochelle address, pay homage to Leo, their Sicilian grandfather and the tutelary figure of a family passion for pizza. Trained in Naples, Romain masters the demanding art of Vera Pizza Napoletana. His patiently worked dough is fermented for 24 hours, before being baked at 480°C in a Sorrento brick oven. San Marzano tomatoes, creamy fior di latte, fragrant olive oil: each ingredient bears a PDO or PGI signature, a guarantee of absolute authenticity. Julia orchestrates the dining room with the same rigor and sincere hospitality. The sober, luminous décor, punctuated by the scent of cooking, evokes Italy without artifice. On the menu, classics are magnified and bold creations are created, where tradition and modernity dialogue without ever betraying each other. At Nonno Leo, memory doesn't freeze anything; on the contrary, it breathes and inspires excellence, guided by the ancestral gesture and the love of taste.
