Bravi Ragazzi

Incredible sourdough based pizza! This place is small, Italian owned and fantastic — really lovely, friendly staff. The pizzas are even better. Tasty ingredients and their secret weapon — their sourdough bases. These pizzas will knock your socks off — I live 5 mins walk from Bravi Ragazzi and it’s all I can do not to eat here every day… Cannot recommend highly enough!
Just one note, it’s a small place so on a Friday/​Sat night you might have to wait for a table. I suggest going for a drink in Pratts & Payne just round the corner.

I’ve been wanting to come here for awhile but it’s always super busy in the evening.
My friend and I rocked up at around 3pm on a Sunday. No wait.
I got caprese salad and eggplant Parmesan. Both were perfect and fresh. My friend got a huge pizza with fresh mozzarella. It was excellent.
The server was attentive and kind.
So glad to have found a fantastic place in walking distance of my flat!

A taste of Naples in south London. This pizza is incredible. I’ve made the trip to Streatham on several occasions just to get a bite of this delicious pizza. Prices approx £10−12 for a pizza

Yep, that’s it, I’ve come out of my 2 year Unilocal retirement to write about this pizzeria because I think this place is da bombbb!
Forget your franco mancas (which, I’ll grant you, I’ve never actually been to — the hype/​queues alone were enough to deter me). If it’s simple, authentic, Italian pizza you’re after then this is your place.
Unpretentious is the first word that comes to mind. Perhaps, having recently moved here from hackney, I have a heightened appreciation of these things but I felt immediately welcome and at home here. It has more of a café feeling than a restaurant in some ways, but don’t let that put you off — they do serve alcohol!
Price wise they start at about £8.50 for a pizza and are a very good size. One per person for the gluttons amongst us but for those with more modest appetites sharing with a side salad is definitely an option. In true Italian fashion, they don’t go overboard on all the toppings so you come away from the meal still being able to move, too, which I appreciate.
As non PC as this is to express, I did enjoy that all the waiters/​waitresses were Italian, too. Made me feel like I was on holiday. Like one big Sicilian Godfather family. It’s fully open plan too, so you can see the pizzas being prepared and this gives it a cosy/​homely feel.
If this is anything to go by, hello Streatham! The great untapped London gastro scene! Possibly. Will let you know.
