Al Catzone - Pizzeria

Vegan Neapolitan-style pizza on Mehringplatz: sourdough, margherita with cashew mozzarella, seitan salsiccia.

Al Catzone sits on Mehringplatz, in a former charity shop. The pizzeria is fitted out in a seventies and eighties style, and outside you sit under trees. The name comes from the cat in the logo, a hedonist with a taste for the good life. The idea: to show that vegan and dolce vita go together.

The pizza is Neapolitan-style and fully plant-based, on sourdough with a light, airy rim. The margherita comes with cashew mozzarella. Dishes have also included the salsiccia e friarielli with house-made seitan sausage and wild broccoli from Campania, the Super Diavola with spicy salami and the Billie with roasted aubergine and basil pesto. To start there is montanara, fried mini pizzas with jackfruit genovese, and to finish tiramisù or vanilla ice cream with salt and olive oil. The bar mixes spritz variations, for example with bergamot. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 5 pm.
