Traditional Italian Favorite
A timeless Italian classic featuring San Marzano-style tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and aromatic basil on our signature thin crust. Simple yet perfectly executed, this pizza showcases the quality of our fresh ingredients.
The Margherita pizza is widely considered the original pizza, and at Green Pizza, we honor this Italian tradition with the utmost respect. Our version starts with a hand-tossed crust that achieves the perfect balance of crispy edges and a soft, chewy center. We spread a generous layer of our house-made tomato sauce, crafted from ripe tomatoes and a careful blend of Italian herbs.
Fresh mozzarella cheese is then layered over the sauce, melting into creamy perfection in our oven. The pizza is finished with fresh basil leaves that add an aromatic freshness and a pop of color. The simplicity of these three core ingredients - tomato, mozzarella, and basil - creates a flavor harmony that has made this pizza an enduring classic for over a century.
At Green Pizza on International Avenue, we believe that the best pizza comes from respecting tradition while using the freshest ingredients available. Our Margherita embodies this philosophy perfectly. Each pizza is crafted with care, ensuring that every bite delivers the authentic taste of Italy. Whether you're a pizza purist or simply appreciate quality ingredients, our Classic Margherita is a must-try when you visit our Forest Lawn location.
