Tipo 00 Balmain — Restaurant in Sydney

We visited for a quick Sunday lunch with the family and was seriously impressed. Small selection of pizzas and a couple of salads on offer which I think is perfect. We tried the queen, verdura and native pizzas. The queen is a classic Margherita, but the other two were a little different than what you would usually see. Verdura pizza was topped with delicious mushrooms and a slightly bitter greens drizzle. Native pizza was a little sweet and with just a hint of spice. Pizza bases were soft, chewy crust and super thin centre, classic Napoletana style. All cooked in a well stoked wood fire oven. Also tried the fennel and orange salad which was a good size and fresh and tasty. Service was quick and friendly. My only criticism is that they only use disposable paper plates and wooden cutlery and pizzas come in boxes even if eating in. Really hope they change to proper plates and cutlery soon to minimise all the waste. Nevertheless would highly recommend this place and come...

Tipo 00 crafts truly exceptional pizzas. The crust is a standout – perfectly chewy with a delightful char from their woodfire oven. It provides a wonderful foundation for their thoughtfully chosen toppings. You can taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. From the vibrant tomatoes in their sauce to the creamy mozzarella and flavourful cured meats, everything is top-notch. They offer a great variety of pizzas, from classic margheritas done right to more innovative and exciting combinations. What I appreciate most is the balance of flavours. Each pizza is carefully constructed so that no single ingredient overpowers the others. The result is a harmonious and delicious experience. The same warm and inviting atmosphere and friendly service extend to their pizza offerings. It's a fantastic spot to enjoy a truly authentic and delicious pizza in a lovely setting. If you're in Balmain and craving pizza, Tipo 00 should definitely be...

Wife and I have decided to spend our weekend dates trying to find Sydney pizza as good as we had in Italy.

Think we might've made a mistake starting with Tipo00 Balmain because their pizza just set the bar impossibly high. Ordered The Queen and the Salamino and everything was just so well made. The red sauce had a great sweetness but maintained the tomato's acidity, there was a perfect ratio of cheese to crust, the salami was amazing and I believe is from another of my favourite joints - LP meats, but the standout was by far the pizza crust itself. So incredibly reminiscent of authentic pizza in Italy with its airiness and lightness, that feeling of that you could eat an entire pizza and not have to take a 6 hour nap afterwards. The staff were absolutely lovely as well and completely rounded out a...
