Dough opens 2nd certified Neapolitan pizza location in San Antonio

April 24, 2018

Dough Pizzeria Napoletana is opening its second San Antonio location in May at South Alamo Street and East César E. Chávez Blvd, in Hemisfair, a mixed-use development being created on the site of the 1968 World's Fair in the Texas city. 

This is the city's only pizzeria certified under the guidelines created by Associazione Pizzaiuoli Napoletani(Neapolitan Pizzaioli Association) founded in Naples, Italy. All ingredients are sourced as much as possible from Italy as well as from local farmers to create that true Neapolitan-style pizza marked by the charred crust, sparse toppings and raised border. 

"Dough is a unique concept," Dough co-owner Lori Horn, said in the release. "We are a full-service restaurant with trained chefs. We provide high levels of service and source top quality products, all while keeping up with the pace of a high volume pizzeria."

Menu pizza options range from Arugula & Prosciutto, blending house-made mozzarella with truffle vinaigrette, to Pork Love, made with house-made spicy sausage, Speck, Soppressata Salami, Pancetta, house-made mozzarella and tomato sauce. Aside from traditional pizza, the restaurant offers house-made burrata, meatballs, antipasti, Tuscan and Italian salads, and Italian-inspired desserts. 

This marks the third restaurant opening by Dough Pizza Napoletana, following Doug and Lori Horn's first location opened in San Antonio in 2007. The chain also has a Plano location opened six years ago.
