Magma pizzeria

Love having some authentic Italian food!
Definitely recommended and I'll be back to try more pizza choices (very curious about their pumpkin one), appetizers and desserts.
Heard they are from Sicily so can't skip the cannoli 😊🇮🇹🍕

Continuate così ragazzi! 👌💯

I had my rehearsal dinner at Magma Pizzeria this past July. Davide Moschella made the planning process simple and warm and sent us information promptly and efficiently. Davide and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate me, my husband, our family, and friends. He accommodated our party’s dietary preferences and even included personalized touches like flowers on the tables. The salads, Neopolitan pizzas, eggplant parmigiana, and tiramisu dessert we chose were delicious. The staff were efficient and friendly. If you are looking for tasty and authentic pizza in the Moorpark/Simi Valley area, look no further than Magma!

It's not often you find wood fired pizza. And less comon to find wood fired pizza made really well. This isn't your typical conveyor belt pizza, it's hand tossed, and individually fired in an insanely hot oven by one guy whose job it is to make sure it's perfectly cooked. 1-2 minutes is all it takes to cook. While it sounds fast, if they're busy you can expect to wait a little while because he can only cook a few at a time. And While this pizza isn't the best I've never had, it does satisfy a lot of conditions as to what I believe makes a really good pizza. I orderd a simple margarita, and a spicy Lucifer with pepperonis added which i got and ate togo.

The pizza:

Wood fired oven brings a nice aroma and richness to the pizza and an unbelievable crispy char to both the top and bottom of the pizza if done correctly. I find most places are afraid to char the pizza but doing so brings a nice richness to the crust that honestly isn't bitter as much as it's simply warm and rich. They do this very well. Char was achieved. 9/10

The Dough. Good pizza is defined by the dough. And this is where many pizzas fail. The dough needs to match the toppings, the cooking method, and the style of pizza. This being a Neapolitan pizza, it should be light, airy, extremely thin, slightly chewy, with a nice little crunch on both the crust and the bottom of the pizza. They did very well. The salt level in the crust is perfect. It was crisped up nicely and held it's crisp for a few minutes while fresh. It was nice and thin and never got soggy from the toppings. Since I'm trying to be critical here, Neapolitan pizza uses somewhat of a sourdough crust where the bread is leaven through fermentation. Not only does this make the crust crisper it also provides a nice sour flavor to the bread like sourdough and also aids in digestibility. I thought this crust was lacking in fermentation. I find the saltines comes out far more pronounced over the sourdough. I think a little more fermentation would boost the crisp more and at that lovely sourdough flavor. Little more fermentation. 7/10

The Sauce they are using is on the fresh and mild side. It's Not too salty, spicy, packed with oregano and other herbs. They keep it fresh and simple. The umami flavor of the tomatoes does come through but I personally think the tomato flavor could be a little more pronounced. Fresh and simple. 7/10

Toppings: the topic of toppings gets weird as it encompasses the individual toppings as well as the combination of said toppings. I had the margarita and the Lucifer. Margarita was as expected.i always order a margarita to check the flavor of the toppings, sauce, and dough.
Mozzarella was nice and fresh perfect salt level. Sauce and dough mentioned above. The Lucifer was good. Spicy full of flavor i thought it added a lot of nice flavor that picked up where the sauce left off. The spicy salami was very good. And chili flakes brought it to a heat level that I like. I added pepperoni. Which came crispy! I really appreciate when pizza places get enough heat into the pepperoni that it makes them curl up and get crispy. It brings a nice salty bacon like flavor which I love. That was a pleasant surprise. Toppings. Fresh toppings and good combinations. I'll need to try some of their other combinations next time. 9/10

Overall, very good pizza. I'm pretty critical when it comes to my pizza review. So this one was a pleasant experience. Overall 8/10 pizza.

Google review 5 star for visibility and promotion.

Loved the pizza! I don’t know why we didn’t go sooner, we are picky pizza eaters and we do make pizza from scratch at home, but honestly it was delicious! The crust was delicious, cooked all the way through but with a nice chew and flavor. I had the black truffle and sausage and would get this again in a heart beat! How wonderful to have real truffle slivers and plenty of it! My just had the margarita, he also really liked it! A must for artisan pizza lovers 💛
