PIZZABELLA - Kansas City, MO

Pizzabella is a cozy pizzeria that specializes in hand-tossed dough topped with unique and innovative toppings then baked in a wood-fired oven. In fact, there are 2, 900 degree wood fired ovens only. No other ovens. So everything is cooked in the open fired ovens. Everything had that real wood smoked flavor, including our sides.
The Brussel Sprouts are a must try!
