Instructor

Best Pizzeria in Spain, #2 in Europe ’50 Top Pizza’ (Madrid, Spain)

Vittorio and Riccardo Figurato

The Neapolitan brothers Riccardo and Vittorio Figurato are master pizza makers and owners of Fratelli Figurato in Madrid.

They have two restaurants in the Spanish capital city:
- Pizzeria Fratelli Figurato – a must: taste the most authentic Neapolitan pizza, using very long fermentation times, more than 48h.
- Trattoria Popolare Fratelli Figurato, where, apart from the Neapolitan pizza, you can find regional Italian fresh pasta (home made).

Riccardo and Vittorio come from the marketing world, but have a profound passion for pizza, and cooking in general. They opened their first restaurant, Pizzeria Fratelli Figurato, in the year 2017, intending to bring the best and lightest Neapolitan pizza to Madrid.

Gradually, this pizza restaurant became famous in the neighborhood, then across the capital city and it is now a pizza restaurant of reference in Spain.

In 2021, they featured in the 50 Top Pizza list, the 'Michelin stars of pizza'. Fratelli Figurato currently rank at #2 in the prestigious best pizza ranking in Europe, and #1 in Spain. For the first time, they will participate in the classification of the World's Best Pizzerias that is held in September.
