Fratelli La Bufala

Fratelli La Bufala on Washington Avenue brings Neapolitan pizza to one of South Beach's central streets, built around the prized DOP-certified buffalo mozzarella from Campania that gives the restaurant its name. La bufala — the female water buffalo — is the source of the creamy, slightly tangy mozzarella that defines authentic Neapolitan pizza, and centering the concept around that ingredient signals a commitment to the real thing. Washington Avenue's central location makes this a convenient stop for anyone in the Art Deco district who wants genuine Neapolitan-style pizza. The imported ingredient focus suggests a kitchen that takes sourcing seriously, which distinguishes it from the many casual pizza spots that populate the neighborhood.
