THE CENTREPIECE
Neapolitan Pizza for At-Home Italian Catering in Melbourne
When we say pizza, we mean Neapolitan pizza. The real kind. Soft, charred crust with a light, airy centre, made the way it has been in Naples for generations. At Il Caminetto, our Neapolitan pizza is not an afterthought on the catering menu. It is the centrepiece.
Every base gets hand-stretched, every topping earns its spot, and nothing leaves our hands until it is right. We pack up the whole experience when we cater, so our wood-fired pizza catering gives you the same dough, the same fire and the same pizza you would get sitting in our restaurant.

From wood-fired pizza to tiramisu, here is what guests are saying about the dishes we bring to every table.
Naomi Melick
★★★★★
Vegan lasagne and Tiramisu were absolutely incredible. So lovely to have wholesome veggie options that felt traditional and not different from the meat ones.
Suzie Scribbles
★★★★★
Full range of vegan and gluten free Italian dishes (alongside non-vegan and non-GF options too). The hand-stretched, wood-fired pizza dough has to be some of the best in Melbourne, and the pizza toppings are a little more refined and "grown up" than your average pizzeria. Nice atmosphere, more casual dining at the front and their more of a restaurant feel in the back room. They do take away too. (Invited)
Doris Toh
★★★★★
The food here is so good! And an excellent selection of vegan options. I had the vegan arancini, raddichio salad and vegan tiramisu. Oh my goodness. It is so good. My dining companions had the tagliatele, pizza, polents chips and tiramisu. Everything was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. We are definitely coming back to work through the menu!
Taniya Peiris
★★★★★
Authentic Italian food, friendly service and a great atmosphere. The 72 hour rested woodfired pizza was definitely the highlight and it’s easy to see why they’re ranked among the 50 Top Pizza Asia Pacific. Looking forward to coming back!
