Lovebirds

Pizzeria on Rosenthaler Platz: Neapolitan sourdough pizza like the Flora with burrata, Roman slices and gluten-free pizza.

Lovebirds sits right on Rosenthaler Platz and is the joint project of Gianluca, an Italian pizzaiolo, and Nico, a Berlin pizza fan. They bake contemporary Neapolitan sourdough pizza, plus Roman scrocchiarella by the slice, fluffy and crisp, and a gluten-free pizza from their own recipe.

The pizzas have names like Flora, with wild herb salad and burrata, Sunday Sunrise or Truffle Soul. The carbonara gets bacon and an egg whose yolk runs over the pizza. The shop is pink, and there are vegan pizzas too. On weekdays Lovebirds opens in the afternoon, at weekends from midday.
