About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Good for groups

La Cucina is a NEW authentic Italian pizzeria and restaurant in the heart of downtown Kitchener. Although a new location, the owners are not new to Italian food. With strong Italian roots, a passion to create authentic Italian food and a love of quality and fresh ingredients, La Cucina Pizzeria will soon be your favourite spot to eat and hang-out. The irresistible aromas from our custom-built Malagutti pizza oven will draw you in, and the delicious dishes that emerge from it will keep you coming back for more. Malagutti has been creating these refractory stone culinary masterpieces for over four decades. You will be able to see your pizza or calzone cooked right before your eyes.

The Pizzeria will be serving more than just pizza slices: our menu includes antipasti, homemade pastas, paninis, and larger dishes like Veal Parmigiana and Porchetta.

Dine with us at La Cucina and fall in love with Italian food all over again.

I had an amazing experience thanks to Catherine! She was incredibly kind, attentive, and knowledgeable — helping me choose the perfect pizza and dessert (which were both absolutely delicious). Her service was beyond excellent, and she made the whole dining experience feel extra special. Catherine truly goes above and beyond — easily one of the best servers I’ve ever had. Highly recommend and definitely giving her a well-deserved 5 stars!

I have yet to have a bad meal. We were there for my mother's 75 birthday and it was busy. We did have some wait time which is understandable. My brother-In law though had 3 bones in his chicken parm dinner. Although management was apprently informed, there was no discount and just an apology for the bones being there. But all other meals were great, just a little something for the inconvenience of the chocking bones would have been nice.

My favourite for authentic Italian food. I have never had a meal I didn’t rave about. The bruschetta is perfect. The tiramisu is the best I’ve ever had. The pastas are always fresh and flavourful. The pizza is something I dream about. Everything is fresh and homemade just like your nonna makes in Italy.
