Background
About Grosso Napoletano
The Story
Grosso Napoletano was founded in 2017 in Madrid by Hugo Rodríguez de Prada and Jorge Blas, with the aim of bringing authentic Neapolitan pizza to Spain at accessible prices. The Carrer de Casanova location opened as the brand's Francesc Macià restaurant and is one of five Grosso Napoletano pizzerias now operating in Barcelona, alongside a dedicated gluten-free Senza Glutine restaurant on Carrer de València. The company operates around 50 venues across Spain.
The Cuisine
The kitchen serves Neapolitan-style pizza made with a double-fermented 48-hour dough using Italian strong flour and sourdough, then baked in about 90 seconds in refractory stone wood-fired ovens built in Naples. Pizzaioli stoke the ovens each morning to keep them at around 500°C. The carta lists classics such as Margherita, Marinara, Diavola, Prosciutto e Funghi, Quattro K, Bianca al Prosciutto, La Vera Carbonara and Calzone, alongside antipasti like burrata, polpette della nonna and parmigiana di melanzane. A weekday Daily Menu runs at 12.95 EUR (classic) and 15.95 EUR (premium); a Menú Buonasera for two is 35.80 EUR. Expect around 25 EUR per person without drinks.
The Team
Founded by Hugo Rodríguez de Prada and Jorge Blas in 2017, Grosso Napoletano employs pizzaioli trained in Naples. Fabrizio Polacco, who leads product for the brand, was named Pizza Maker of the Year 2025 at the 50 Top World Artisan Pizza Chains awards (Ferrarelle Award).
