About Bandit Pizza and Wine

Bandit Pizza and Wine brings high-tempo wine bar energy and blistered wood-fired pies to Hyde Park. Green tiles. A driving soundtrack. Stools packed along the counter—the prime perch to watch the pizzaiolo work the wood flames. Regulars often build full meals out of the starters alone, pairing lamb skewers and charred plates with chilled house bottles of Negroni. Glasses lean toward Italian Nebbiolo, while celebration tables hand the pace over to the multi-course 'Trust the Chef' feast.

  • Open Kitchen Counter: Counter seating puts diners right against the pass to chat with chefs and catch the oven action firsthand.
  • 'Trust the Chef' Feasts: A multi-course tasting progression curated for celebratory tables looking to skip menu negotiations.
  • Beyond Pizza Small Plates: Punchy shared plates like lamb arrosticini and grilled bites substantial enough to build an entire dinner around.
  • Chilled Bottled Cocktails: House drinks and Negronis mixed ahead and served directly in cold custom Bandit Bottles.
