Malafemmena

Malafemmena: Naples in the Heart of Berlin

The name sounds like trouble, but whoever opens the door to Malafemmena is immediately enveloped by a warm trattoria atmosphere. The name comes from a song by Neapolitan actor Totò from the 1950s and means “wicked girl.” Apart from that, everything here is honest and heartfelt. With locations in Schöneberg and Prenzlauer Berg, this pizzeria attracts pizza fans from all over the city. From your table, you can watch Neapolitan-trained pizzaiolos at work in the open kitchen. The pizza is baked according to all traditional rules for about two minutes at 420 degrees Celsius in a licensed Neapolitan Forni Valoriani oven. The result: a fluffy dough, a slightly charred crust, and ingredients directly from Italy.

AVPN-Certified and Among Europe’s Top 50

Two facts prove that Malafemmena is more than just a good pizzeria. It is the only pizzeria in Berlin with the AVPN badge from the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, the official association of Neapolitan pizzaiolos. Furthermore, the restaurant was voted among the Top 50 Pizzerias in Europe. The menu is particularly convincing due to its variety: from the “Verace Napoletana” with tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella to the white “Salsiccia e Friarielli” with wild broccoli, all the way to the classic Margherita. If you’re hungry for more: The menu also offers vegetarian and vegan options as well as fried Neapolitan snacks, and the flagship store in Friedenau also serves pasta and secondi. Table reservations are strongly recommended.
