Alexis T.October 7, 2014I CANNOT recommend the Pannocchia enough! The sweetness of the corn w/ the saltiness of the pancetta was absolute heaven. And of course, get a growler from Prohibition; theyll put it in the fridge 4 u
Philadelphia MagazineApril 10, 2014The perfect night out in the neighborhood? A growler from Prohibition Taproom right down the block, walked up to Bufad and plunked down alongside a plate of scamorza and an idealized margherita pizza. Read more

RCJuly 2, 2017Crazy-underrated brunch spot! Cannoli french toast and truffle mushroom calzone (basically) with fried eggs and arugula...omg! No joke, the pizza is better than in Napoli.
A7MAD .February 26, 2018The atmosphere was good. The pizza was so delicious, indeed, it's one of best wood fired pizza. They need to include more pizza choices.
Visit PhillyOctober 27, 2014The rotating Roman slice specials from Bufad Pizza’s wood-fired oven regularly feature a vegan (just tomatoes) and a vegetarian option (potato with goat cheese and arugula, perhaps). Read more
Serious EatsSeptember 17, 2013Fresh, interesting toppings make for an enjoyable pizza experience at Bufad; the summery Pomodori is a highlight of the season.
Great pizza in a super cool space. The 900 degree oven produces a seriously kickass crust. The toppings are high quality and creative. Save some room for dessert. It will surprise you.
Daniel WolfAugust 7, 2014Simply the best pizza in Philadelphia. Just go here. Original flavor combinations, plus lots of garlic. Sprinkle on some bread crumbs or hot peppers.
Lance LacoffAugust 13, 2014Solid margherita but don't hesitate to be adventurous with the options - really good pizza and friendly staff
- Lance LacoffJune 7, 2014Great pizza BYOB spot - enjoyed eating there outside last night. Friendly staff, too
Rick (Barney) WMarch 21, 2013The staff is amazing, the food is incredible, and you have to try the chicken livers! PS-like everyone's said before me, grab a growler from prohibition and bring it here!
NatalieMarch 10, 2013The farro salad and truffle pizza were both amazing. The staff is helpful but not overbearing. Definitely don't miss this spot!
Richie StarkMay 1, 2013If you like pesto, their new pesto and fennel pizza does it right with capicola on top
Erin NissleyDecember 7, 2014What isn't good? From the chewy, airy crust to the perfect tomato sauce, you can't go wrong. And the price? Such a bargain.- Philadelphia MagazineFebruary 24, 2013Grab a growler of beer from Prohibition Taproom and head over to Bufad for some really good pizza. Read more
EnGeeFebruary 16, 2013Pizza is great! Being a bottle of wine and friends for a great meal. Take out also.- Visit PhillyMarch 27, 2013Power couple Mike and Jeniphur Pasquarello of nearby Cafe Lift and Prohibition Taproom are the ones behind this Neopolitan-style pizzeria.
Christopher WilliamsNovember 18, 2017Get the buratta! I would eat a bowl of just this if it was an option.
- Yoel RothMay 28, 2014The roman slices can be great or incredibly stingy, depending on who's working the counter.
I was the mayor for months, but stopped going after they changed the main pizza guy. Just not the same... And if they had a gluten free option id b mayor again!
Campbell BirdNovember 22, 2015Glad I tried it, but a little too expensive for what it is. Try the sausage pizza.
