About Farinella
Farinella is Ottawa's go-to for authentic Neapolitan pizza. Run by Nina Agostini and her brother Cesare, the restaurant opened in 2019 and quickly became a local favourite. The name means "flour" in Italian — and flour is where they start, with hand-stretched dough made fresh daily.
The signature move is pizza by the meter — order as much as you want, measured on a long wooden board. They also serve fresh pasta and house-made gelato.
What to Order
- Margherita — The classic. Fresh mozzarella, tomato, basil.
- Pizza al Metro — By the meter. Great for sharing.
- Gelato — Made in-house. The pistachio is excellent.
- Pasta — Fresh and simple, Italian-style.
