La Cucina is a NEW authentic Italian pizzeria and restaurant in the heart of downtown Kitchener. Although a new location, the owners are not new to Italian food. With strong Italian roots, a passion to create authentic Italian food and a love of quality and fresh ingredients, La Cucina Pizzeria will soon be your favourite spot to eat and hang-out. The irresistible aromas from our custom-built Malagutti pizza oven will draw you in, and the delicious dishes that emerge from it will keep you coming back for more. Malagutti has been creating these refractory stone culinary masterpieces for over four decades. You will be able to see your pizza or calzone cooked right before your eyes.

The Pizzeria will be serving more than just pizza slices: our menu includes antipasti, homemade pastas, paninis, and larger dishes like Veal Parmigiana and Porchetta.

Dine with us at La Cucina and fall in love with Italian food all over again.

    Super pleased with this Italian cuisine find. Ambiance was really nice and relaxed, causal authentic quality Italian dining. Menu choices had something for everyone, service was excellent and the food came out at a great pace. Tomato sauce was wow and everyone had something great to say about their menu selections and dining experience. First time there, I’ll be back. It’s now my #1 choice.

    It was our first time here. It feels like a step above fast food with how we were treated and how people were being served. The waiter never bothered to tell us the specials etc., it literally was like placing an order at a drive through.

    Incredible visit to La Cucina! I’d been before but had four out-of-town guests who absolutely loved the whole experience! Huge kudos to our waitress!

    The best part of Lacuccina is it’s the same! Same great flavour, same great staff! We were missing Catherine tonight but our favourite manager was in the house tonight! Neil was running with the rest of the staff, the place was hopping!!!

    Nice open style restaurant experience, not the quietest place but the pizza is excellent and that’s what keeps us coming back. Top quality ingredients and cooked to perfection.

    Food and service was good. Table wasn’t great. Right behind the host stand. Also a high top table when there were booths and other regular tables available. Should prioritize reservations getting better tables. Walk-ins should get less desirable tables.
