Heritage Pizza is a restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Heritage Pizza represents authentic northern Italian pizza culture in Kuala Lumpur's The Row dining district, founded by Milan-born Antonio "Tony" Delachi who maintains Italy's traditional pizza-making standards. The restaurant features a prized Veronese stone oven imported from Verona creating signature leopard-spot char and perfectly crispy yet airy crusts through 48-hour fermentation producing lighter, puffy-edged pizzas distinct from Naples' floppy pizza napoletana style. Every ingredient reflects authenticity: San Marzano tomatoes from Campania, buffalo mozzarella imported from Italy, Parma ham, authentic nduja spicy pork paste, and Italian artisan cheeses. The Malaysian head chef trained at The Westin Kuala Lumpur's Prego, bringing technical precision to traditional recipes. Heritage Pizza occupies an industrial-chic space on The Row's heritage shophouse strip with exposed brick walls, metal accents, white tables, and beautiful plant-filled outdoor terrace for al fresco dining. The menu showcases northern Italian classics: Margherita (RM32), Capricciosa with cured ham, olives, artichokes, mushrooms (RM40), Calabrese featuring nduja, crispy pancetta, broccoli, charred chillies (RM42-RM47), Parma Pizza with rocket (RM54), Funghi (RM36), Bresaola e Rucola with air-dried beef and whole burrata (RM88), and Cinque Formaggi five-cheese (RM51). Premium add-ons include buffalo mozzarella (RM10) and fresh burrata (RM24). Authentic Italian pistachio gelato completes meals. Located 3 minutes from Dang Wangi LRT on Jalan Doraisamy's The Row, Heritage Pizza neighbors Silverfox Cafe, Common Grind, and Michelin-recognized Restaurant Dominic. Italian expats, European tourists, and discerning pizza enthusiasts frequent Heritage Pizza for what many consider KL's most authentic Italian pizza matching quality found in Milan, Rome, and Venice.
