Tor­ri­cel­la Pizzeria

A piece of Italy in the SLO Public Market, Torricella Pizzeria has a menu that will make your mouth water. With an emphasis on fresh, simple, and traditional ingredients in their pizzas, pasta, and Italian salads, their menu is a love letter to Torricella.

Chef Ben’s love for food flourished in his family’s hometown of Corigliano, Calabria, Italy. Their neighborhood, Torricella, has many gatherings and celebrations all centered around food – its origin, how it is made, and the tradition behind it. Since then, Chef Ben has set on a journey to care as much about food as his family in Torricella.

After studying at Apicius Culinary School in Florence, Italy, and working in various high-end restaurants in Italy and Germany, Chef Ben opened Torricella (pronounced tor-ee-chella) Catering. Since opening in 2017, his dream has always been to open a storefront. Chef Ben has joined together with longtime friend and now partner, Mason Bacot who has been working in the restaurant industry for over 10 years. His experience ranging from locally renowned restaurants to Michelin Star. They have aligned their interests to bring us Torricella Pizzeria.
