What Our Neighbors Are Saying

Real reviews from local customers who've discovered their new favorite pizza spot.

Maria Reyes

Elmhurst resident

"The margherita reminded me of Naples — I wasn't expecting that from a spot two blocks from my apartment. We ordered the diavola too and it disappeared in minutes."

Comes back weekly for the diavola

James Tran

Grad student

"My kids ask for Piazza Ember every Friday — it's become our thing. Fast enough for a weeknight, good enough for a birthday dinner."

Family Friday night tradition

Amara Kim

Nurse, downtown clinic

"I came in on a whim after a long shift and stayed for dessert. The dough has this chew you just don't get at chain places. Now it's my go-to reset meal."

What Makes Our Free Pizza Special

900°F wood-fired oven, 90-second cook. That extreme heat blisters the crust and locks in moisture, giving you a charred, smoky bite you can't replicate in a conventional oven.

San Marzano tomatoes, crushed by hand. Grown in volcanic soil near Naples, they're naturally sweeter and less acidic — the base of every sauce we make.

Fresh mozzarella, delivered daily. Sourced from a local dairy partner and never frozen, so it melts into soft pools instead of a rubbery layer.

Neapolitan-style dough, aged 48 hours. The long cold ferment develops flavor and gives the crust its signature light, airy chew.

Basil, hand-torn to order. Added right after the pizza leaves the oven so it stays fragrant instead of wilting under the heat.

Crafted by Pizza Artisans Who Care

Chef Marco Bellini trained in wood-fired technique in Naples for three years before bringing that craft home to open Piazza Ember. He wanted a neighborhood spot where families and students could get restaurant-quality pizza without a special-occasion price tag.

Since opening, Marco has built Piazza Ember around three commitments: authentic technique, local sourcing, and a room that feels like someone's living room, not a chain.

Piazza Ember's margherita was voted "Best Neighborhood Pizza" by local readers last year.

Questions About Your Free Pizza

Everything you need to know before you visit.

Is this really free?

Yes — completely free, no hidden fee added to your bill. Just place any dine-in order and your margherita is added at no charge.

Do I need to buy anything else?

You need to order at least one dine-in entrée — a pasta, salad, or another pizza. Your free margherita is added to that order automatically.

Can I get takeout instead?

This offer is dine-in only, so we can serve your pizza fresh from the oven at peak quality. We'd love to have you takeout on a future visit at regular menu pricing.

When does this offer expire?

The offer runs through this Sunday. After you claim it online, you can redeem it any night we're open this week — no need to rush in the same day.

Can I bring friends?

Absolutely! Bring the whole crew — just know the free margherita is limited to one per claimed offer, but everyone at your table can order full price off the menu.

What if I'm vegetarian or have allergies?

Our margherita is vegetarian by default. Let your server know about any allergies — we can accommodate gluten-free crusts and dairy-free cheese with advance notice.
