Doppio Zero Pizza is a Neapolitian Pizzeria in Como Lake neighbourhood of Coquiltam – specifically Como Lake at Poirier Street. I was pretty dissapointed the first time I couldn’t make it when Sherman and the wanted to meet up. Luckily, Josh arranged for another dinner to try out their new menu!
I love that Doppio Zero Pizza is located in the Tri-Cities even though it still takes me 20 mins to drive here from my house. But it is a good option if you feel like some thin-crust Neapolitian pizzas. The menu has a few more items than Spacca Napoli in Port Moody and they offer a decent sized parking lot out front.
The restaurant itself is roomy with plenty of high top tables and booth seats along with a bar area. We started the evening off with a few appetizers.
Bruschetta 12: tomatoes, olives, capers, basil, parmigiano reggiano. Nicely toasted with fresh flavours. Would definitely order again.
Arancini Siciliani 12: crispy risotto, bolognese, mozzarella
New on the menu are two pizzas – so new that it doesn’t have a name yet! One comes with crispy Brussel Sprouts (something that I love making at home with my Actifry)
Brussel Sprouts Pizza: fiore di latte, crispy Brussel Sprouts, pancetta, capers and chili flakes!
Blue Cheese Pizza with walnuts: For those who are not normally blue cheese fans, I recommend you to try this since the “blue cheese” flavour is not too strong and you barely notice it. It’s just there very subtley.
- Add Dairy-Free cheese to any pizza for an extra $3
- Add Bufala mozzarella to any pizza for an extra $5
Tagliatelle al Funghi e Manzo 19: One of my favourite pastas from Doppio Zero. This rich tasting al dente Tagliatelle pasta features braised oxtail, mushrooms and truffle oil. Earthy but not overwhelming and would come back just for this dish!
Gnocchi alla Crema di Gorgonzola 18: potato gnocchi, gorgonzola mornay sauce and pine nuts. Normally I’m not a gorgonzola fan. I find a lot of places going overboard but luckily like the Blue Cheese Pizza, this Gorgonzola gnocchi is very balanced and not overwhelming.
On to desserts we shared:
Limoncello Key Lime Pie 8: Italian twist on this classic dessert. I liked the layer of torched meringue on top. It helps balance an otherwise sour tart dessert.
Cannoli 8 : one pistacio and one chocolate with berries and chantilly cream.
Doppio Zero Pizza offers a variety of Italian dishes that are reasonably priced in the Coquitlam area. Their pizzas are thin crusted and has a nice char while still being chewy! I recommend dining early or making reservations as it gets pretty busy at night!
