In our continuing series on local restaurant options for the 53rd Annual Wickford Art Festival, I am happy to get to know Bravo Wood Fired Pizza.  I am a huge fan of pizza, as is my family.  I was very interested in the process so I grabbed some information from their website – www.bravowoodfiredpizza.com.  I also discovered that they have gluten free options, which is a huge bonus when a member of your friends and family has a gluten intolerance.  Typically, most pizza parlors offer dough that is made with gluten, so having a gluten free solution allows you to enjoy pizza without the physical side effects.  Here is some additional information from their website as well as owners Jen and Gregg O’Neill:

Wood Fired Pizza is baked at 800-900 degrees next to a hardwood fire in an Italian brick oven. The dough is specially made for the oven and results in a crispy outside and a soft “fresh bread” inside texture. This is Neapolitan style pizza made in the centuries old traditional way. Most people who taste it for the first time say it is the best tasting pizza they have ever experienced. We also offer a gluten free pizza that is baked in the wood fired oven as well. It is specially formulated to be baked in a high temperature oven and our gluten free customers tell us it is delicious!

We are a fairly new, locally owned business on Post Road. We are long time North Kingstown residents. Our restaurant features Neapolitan style wood fired pizza, pasta dishes, salads and sandwiches made with fresh and locally sourced ingredients. We roast fresh vegetables like mushrooms, peppers and onions daily in our wood fired oven to use throughout our menu. We use locally made cheeses, meats, and vegetables from local farms. We have a comfortable, casual dining room and also offer take out service with a convenient drive thru window for easy pick up.  We have a selection of beers and wines and locally made gelato for dessert. We also have a gluten free menu including real wood fired pizza that is gluten free.  Lastly, we are present at a number of local farmer’s markets this summer in East Greenwich, Newport, as well as locally here in Casey Farms.  Our website has a section of “Where you can find us.”
