"Pizza is a big deal in Sydney, and it’s not unusual to get into a heated debate over the best spot, the best crust style, and whether blotting is sacrilegious. But you’ll be far too distracted by how good the food is at Bella Brutta to comment on the way your friends fold their slices. This Newtown spot serves thin, wood-fired pizzas with toppings like mortadella, fior di latte, and clams and has a wine list full of local, natural wines. Just make sure you save room for dessert—the tiramisu and cannoli are two great choices." - Caroline Clements 33

great pizza! enjoyed the ones with clams - diced small and really tasty! had the limoncello spritz and stracciatella to go along with the pizza. Alice did a really good job in giving a rundown of the menu and recommending what’s good. My jaw hurts from finishing the whole pizza but damn it was good 👌🏻

Was on a work trip from Melbourne and dropped by this establishment. Team and service even though so busy managed to squeeze us in and it was top notch. Would say it was better than a lot of the Melbourne establishments for pizza and everything here was soo nice. From memory the clam pizza was unique but also realllyyy tasty

The best Pizza we have had in Sydney so far (Pepperoni). The tomatoes with anchovies were fantastic! Tuna Crudo lost the tuna in the sauce but not bad. The mushrooms had good texture but the spicy spice mix lost the mushrooms while the Cannoli was too hard and filling too thick. The jersey milk with mandarin granite a great dessert. Unfortunately the Limoncello was awful with a soapy taste…not sure what has gone wrong there. Overall a great experience with knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Bella Bruta is a must-visit in Sydney if you’re after some authentic wood-fired pizza. Had three different pizzas during my visit, which are Margherita, Potato, and Sausage, and here’s how they ranked up for me. 🥔The Potato Pizza was my personal favorite, with its rich and creamy combination of roast potatoes, fior di latte, gorgonzola, confit garlic, and rosemary. It felt indulgent without being overwhelming. 🍕The Sausage Pizza came second, offering a great balance of flavors. The chili added a slight kick, while the zuni pickle brought a tangy edge that complemented the rich salsiccia and parmesan. 🍅Finally, the Margherita Pizza, though fresh and simple, was best enjoyed hot. Once cooled, the flavors became less impactful compared to the others. I visited during dinner hours (6:30 pm) and waited 30 minutes for a table, so I’d recommend booking in advance during peak times. Overall, Bella Bruta serves thin, crispy pizzas that capture the essence of Italian-style cooking. The Potato and Sausage pizzas are standout options and worth trying!😍

I have found my new favourite pizza place when not in Italy. The wood fired pizza dough was lovely, light, and crispy well cooked. The clam pizza is a must try, the topping is simple yet delicious. Staff was friendly overall vibe was chill, family friendly dining. 🇮🇹 What we ordered: * Limoncello Spritz / Bella Brutta x Poor Toms Limoncello, Prosecco, Soda 🍋 * Scallop Crudo, Lemonade Fruit * Chickpea Fritter, Pickled Onions, Anchovy * Marinated Peppers, Capers, Oregano * Clam Pizza: Surf clams, Pecorino, Fermented Chilli, Garlic, Parsley * Tiramisu

Beef tongue - beautifully smoked and tender, perfect pairing with gribiche. Arancini - nice flavour but a tad too salty. And $10 per ball is too steep IMO. Chickpea fritter - didn’t know what to expect but very nice texture, almost like tofu, enjoyed the balance of flavour with pickled onions and anchovy. $12 each - again IMO would be only worth it if they grounded their own chickpea flour. Pizza (Clam) - signature flavour but a bit too fishy for me. Perhaps could be lifted with more citrus/feta or maybe even caramelised onion. Pizza (Sausage) - nice hint of the chilli. Tiramisu - nice, would’ve been even better with alcohol in it but maybe they chose not to in order to cater for all ages and diet requirements? Service & Atmosphere: Nice ambience, friendly and attentive service. Overall an enjoyable dining experience and looking forward to trying other dishes next time.

We enjoyed a quick birthday meal at Bella Brutta. The menu is limited, but well crafted. The pizza options offered a variety of flavours profiles to suit all tastes. We ordered the potato pizza (with added guanchale) and the sausage pizza. Overall we were pleased that the pizza lived up to the hype surrounding it. The sausage pizza was a love letter to the genre, while the potato pizza proved a refreshing take on the old classics.

Love love love the recommendations from the staffs and bonus points for their customer service! The Clam pizza is the one you can’t miss! It’s really flavoured and the pizza base is one of the best Woodfire pizza you can find in Sydney. The chilli oil is the highlight! The Mushroom Ragù plate is a bit tricky, we don’t mind the strong taste of the mushroom so we like this dish. But if you can’t bear the “freshness” and the “earthy” taste of the mushroom, you might hate it so bad.. - A bit pricy but worth it ;) Need to try their popular Potato Pizza and the tiramisu next time!
