Neapolitan Pizza Master Ciro Salvo Brings 50 Kalò to London's Heart
Ciro Salvo has opened 50 Kalò, a high-end Neapolitan pizzeria, on Northumberland Avenue in London. The restaurant sits near Trafalgar Square and marks Salvo’s first direct venture outside Italy. He sees London as a major opportunity and believes the timing is right for this expansion. Salvo is the first recognised Neapolitan Master Pizzamaker to open a pizzeria directly in London. This is his only serious international expansion in recent years. The menu features signature pizzas such as Margherita 50 Kalò, Montanara, and Fritti.
The kitchen uses a Forno Napoletano oven, crafted by an artisanal family business with over 10 years of experience in the UK. Salvo works with high-hydration dough and sources ingredients from both local suppliers and Campania. To complement the pizzas, the wine list includes selected Campanian wines and Champagnes. 50 Kalò aims to become a notable addition to London’s pizza scene. The pizzeria combines traditional Neapolitan techniques with carefully chosen produce. Its location near Trafalgar Square puts it at the heart of the city’s dining options.
