About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
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.

    Awesome experience, service was exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed thd dining experience. The Fini Fini pasta was flavourful, Calamari was lightly coated and tender. The Creme Brulee, my favorite dessert was one of the best I have had. Looking forward to our next dining experience at LA Cucina.

    Food was delicious! All five of us enjoyed our meal and absolutely loved every bit of what we ordered. We were a little disappointed with the service. Two people received their food while the other 3 waited for their food for a while. The server did not come by to check if we needed anything. It was when we were halfway through our meal that she stopped by (just once - and we were waiting to ask for pepper). Would definitely be back for the food though. I absolutely devoured by pasta!
