Years passed, but their fondness of the country (and cuisine) did not. In 2013, Jason told Kelli he wanted to open his own restaurant concept, right where he grew up, in Kansas City.

The duo is proud to bring authentic Neapolitan pizzas to Kansas City. What is Neapolitan style pizza? Five main components make up a Neapolitan pizza: 1) The crust is hand tossed, thin and comprised…

    Modern Pizza Joint at It's Best!

    Modern decor and hip location. Pizza is fabulous! The stone oven makes amazing crust! Service is top rate too. Also pizza comes out fast! Love the outdoor dining area surrounded by planters and string lights at night. An Oasis in North JOCO!

    Not what we expected

    The charcuterie board had a honey nut substitution instead of the fig marmalade. Disappointing. The selections of meat & cheese were typical faire. Friend ate “the butcher” pizza. He left most of the crust on his plate. Seemed overcooked. There was not a good amount...More

    Not Bad!

    I love pizza! Sicilian, Neapolitan, Chicago, New York, St.Louis, heck, even Pizza Hut (in an emergency). So we stopped by 1889 Pizza Napoletana for the first time with a few friends the other night. The bottom line: enjoyable. Located west of the Country Club Plaza,...More

    My daughter and I split the pork belly- good choice. Very thin light crust. Pulled pork, Cole slaw, and a sweet BBQ sauce. I could definitely eat a whole pizza but half is better on my waistline! According to their website a whole margherita pizza...More
