We have seen a culinary explosion here in historic Columbia City and I am thrilled that we have been a part of it. Now that you have visited our website, I would love to invite you to come in person and dine with us. We offer live music on Wednesday and Saturday nights; just click on the Music Calendar link for current and upcoming events. We really consider ourselves to be the neighborhood living room. We are a great place to bring a date or the whole family, and an ideal location for your next birthday party, soccer party or office meeting or outing. We serve authentic Neapolitan pizzas, family style salads, award winning tiramisu, and in my opinion, the best espresso in Seattle, if not the country! The atmosphere is delightful and the service is always friendly and prompt.

The inspiration for Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzeria stems from a passion for the authentic, fire-roasted pizzas born in Naples and found throughout Italy. For a century and a half, the pizza makers (or “pizzaioli” as they are known in their home town) of Naples have been producing unique, mouth-watering pizzas using the freshest ingredients available. It is estimated that nearly 7 million of these pizzas are produced in Italy every day.

Prior to opening Tutta Bella in January 2004, Joe Fugere, the owner, received his certification as a pizzaioli and traveled to Naples to continue his training and refine his skills. Since the VPN regulations do not state that the pizza must be made in Naples, any restaurant in the world has the opportunity to receive the VPN certification mark provided that the production of their pizzas meets the Association’s strict requirements. To date, only a handful of pizzerias in the United States have chosen to do so – Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzeria is the first restaurant in the Northwest to receive the coveted VPN certification.
