history
Pizzeria da Salvatore like every family-run restaurant has its origins in past generations.
The family Rasulo has the passion and art of pizza originated in Naples begins with Antonio Rasulo, father of Salvatore, who was a humble and simple pizza maker.
It will be thanks to Salvatore that this art will bring him great satisfactions.
Moved with his wife after the war in the north, work for a few years in Venice
to arrive in Verona in 1949, where in a short time later he created the first historic pizzeria in Verona in the Veronetta district, the Grottina.
For about a decade he collaborated in the creation of the first pizzerias in Verona including the Costa, the Cavour, the Tavernetta and the Sayonara, teaches and transmits his art to several people including a military man American, who will describe his mastery in an article in the "Army Times". Finally the Sara recognized the merit of first pizza chef from all over Verona, the one who gave rise to this culinary movement in the city, thanks to a item
of the city newspaper "the morning of Verona".
In 1961, Salvatore decided to take over an old trattoria in Corso Portoni Borsari and in December of the same year inaugurates the Pizzeria da Salvatore, the one that it will become the point of departure and arrival of this family.
At the end of the 70s the eldest son Ivano began to collaborate in the business.
In the following years the Pizzeria da Salvatore begins to depopulate between the Veronese becoming a symbol and local loved recommended by the whole city to savor one real Neapolitan pizza.
At the gates of the new millennium, precisely in the 90's,
Salvatore retires and the business of the family passes into the hands of Ivano.
In the 2000s, the historic headquarters in Corso Portoni Borsari had to change location, so the search for a new venue fell on the Veronetta district, as originally, close to the historic center.
With the inauguration in August 2000, the history of Pizzeria from Salvatore continues in the new restaurant,
by Ivano Rasulo, with the help in room of the younger brothers Angela e Maurizio, carry on everything what Salvatore has created to never disappoint his own clients.
