About this spot
SPAN delivers New York-style pizza that feels right at home in Bologna's historic Santo Stefano neighborhood, where the crust is thin and charred with a crisp edge. The menu features bold toppings like spicy salami and caramelized onions that cut through the rich tomato sauce without overwhelming the dough. This spot proves you don't need to travel to Manhattan for authentic slice culture.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order by the slice if you're only staying one night, as whole pies can be difficult to share among a small group.
- Look for the 'focaccia' on the menu; it's a dense, olive-oil-rich bread perfect for dipping into your leftover pizza sauce.
- Expect a lively atmosphere with long lines during dinner hours, so arrive early or grab a slice-to-go from the counter.
