Pizza Forvm

One of Pizza Forvm’s appeals is the choice between Roman- and Neapolitan-style pizza. Diners have remarked on the oven-baked crust, with its fragrant, well-risen edge and chewy, bread-like texture. One visitor who had eaten here many times chose a favourite, the Vesuvio, on a return to Kyoto after a long absence. Another singled out a Northern-style pizza topped with ham and mushrooms. Choosing a pie with a different style or topping is part of the pleasure.

A diner who ordered the classic Margherita remembered not only the pizza but also the dressing, while another enjoyed a seasonal pie listed on the blackboard. Margherita, seasonal pizza and salad are among the menu options. You can build a meal around a familiar classic or see what is on offer that day.

The menu also offers Italian-style meatballs and lasagne. One diner named the meatballs as a dish they would happily eat again. Pizza can take centre stage, with other plates available for anyone in the mood for a different main. One review noted that there was no pasta, so this may suit diners more interested in oven-baked pizza or meat dishes than noodles. Other visitors have enjoyed caprese, burrata with anchovies, calzone and tagliata, pointing to a range of choices beyond pizza. Tiramisu, panna cotta and affogato are among the dessert options, too.

Some visitors have paired wine with their pizza; the menu includes Italian wines and craft beer. Reservations are recommended for dinner, and there is also a terrace. If you are planning an evening meal, consider booking and choosing a drink to go with your food.
