OUR STORY
8 years ago; in 2017, a dream of delivering the best Italian thin crust pizza to our beloved fellow Sri Lankans, came to life with just 5 employees. Established in the heart of Kandy, we became the proud owners of the first ever wood fired oven pizzeria in the city. Up to date, we have been delivering the best out of the best for all pizza lovers alike; local and foreign. Each and every pizza we craft is baked in our traditional wood-fired oven, using hand-stretched dough, the freshest ingredients, and time-honored Italian techniques. But what makes us unique is our Sri Lankan twist – vibrant flavors, local inspiration, and bold creativity that make each bite unforgettable, and we make sure that you would definitely return for a second pizza.
Fueled by all your unwavering loyalty and heartfelt support, Vito Pizza has grown from that humble five-person team into a bustling pizzeria loved by locals and travelers alike. It is no secret that Vito Pizza has blossomed into one of the most favored gathering spots in Kandy. In October 2022, we opened our new flagship location on Saranankara Road, where our energetic crew of eleven pizza artisans and servers welcomes you with warm smiles and lightning-fast service.
Whether you’re seeking the best pizza in Kandy for dine-in—complete with panoramic hill-city views—or grabbing a convenient takeaway via our online ordering system, Vito Pizza remains your go-to spot for wood-fired pizza.
And today, Vito Pizza is never too far away. In March 2024, we brought our wood-fired oven and signature thin-crust pizza to the heart of Colombo, where urban energy meets our crackling hearth.
By September 2024, our doors opened in Peradeniya, inviting university students and local food lovers to taste that perfect harmony of Italian tradition and Sri Lankan spice. And just this June 2025, we launched our seaside sanctuary in Negombo, and in 2026 we opened doors at Galle where every pizza pairs beautifully with sweeping ocean views. No matter where you roam across Sri Lanka, your next unforgettable slice is just around the corner with Vito Pizza.
Experience Sri Lanka’s first-ever 18″ wood-fired pizza, hand-tossed to paper-thin perfection. Choose from our signature Italian classics or bold island-inspired toppings—each slice a crispy, cheesy marvel you’ll want to tackle with friends (or keep all to yourself).
Sink your teeth into our golden-brown calzones, bubbling with fresh mozzarella and a whisper of spicy lamprais chutney. Or savor layer upon layer of creamy béchamel and rich, seasoned sauce in our silky lasagna—where Italian comfort meets Sri Lankan flair.
Crunch into vibrant greens drizzled with basil pesto, sun-ripened cherry tomatoes, and just enough Lankan chili kick. Our pastas are al dente Italian traditions, tossed in house-made sauces that marry creamy indulgence with island-fresh spices for a flavor journey in every forkful.
Cap off your meal with a velvety Chocolate Decadence or a refreshing Tropical Mango Sensation milkshake. Feeling adventurous? Let our mixologists tempt you with lemongrass mojitos, tamarind margaritas, or seasonal spritzes—each crafted to perfectly complement your feast.
Silky-smooth and sun-kissed, this sauce begins with tomatoes ripen to perfection, simmered low and slow with a touch of aged balsamic. The result? A velvety base that’s both sweet and tangy—perfect for dipping crust edges or drizzling over fresh mozzarella for that extra pop of Italian warmth.
A concerto of flavor in every spoonful. We roast garlic cloves until golden, then blend them with creamy olive oil, a whisper of fresh parsley, and just enough sea salt to let those caramelized notes sing. Brush it on your crust for a golden-brown finish, or swirl it into our house-made pasta for an unforgettable garlicky embrace.
This is Sri Lanka’s heat dialed up to “delicious.” Fresh green chilies and tangy gooseberries are ground with roasted spices, coconut milk, and a squeeze of lime, creating a lively, creamy chutney that dances between hot, sour, and tropical. Spoon it alongside your pizza for a bold kick—or mix it into your lasagna layers for that addictive, island-inspired zing.
