"El Cucuy: In the never-ending wave of taco joints to hit New Orleans the last few years, one that’s heavy metal and South American folklore-themed admittedly stuck out. In the works for nearly a year, plans for the trompo-style taqueria luckily always revolved around a large, shaded dining deck adjacent to the restaurant." - Clair Lorell

Nola Pizza Co.

Pizza restaurant · Irish Channel

From the team at NOLA Brewing comes NOLA Pizza Co, a NYC style pizza joint. Combining our years of fermentation experience with our team’s love of NYC style pizza, we are looking forward to bringing New Orleans the best pizza in town. Using our brewery to its fullest capabilities, we will be able to produce consistent, high quality water for our natural 48-hour fermented dough. Utilizing a combination of technique and quality, we strive to bring you the finest pizza, the NOLA way. There are three major components to making NYC style dough: water, yeast and fermentation. We strip everything from the water through reverse osmosis and then we add back the right levels of calcium, magnesium, & sodium ensuring the Total Dissolved Solids and the pH levels are a perfect match for NYC water. This not only provides the right elements for our 48 hour fermentation process of our dough balls, but it produces a consistently high-quality perfect pizza and crust. Our dough is naturally leavened and fermented using a sourdough starter.
