Pizzaleah bakes California-style artisan pizza in an electric brick oven in Windsor. The dough starts from a New York-style base, run through a slow, cold fermentation process to build its signature crust, and the specialty pies lean on fresh, local ingredients with a California-cuisine bent. Beer and wine on the list come from the Northern Bay Area.
Founder Leah Scurto started making pizza in 1997 and spent years at the Bay Area chain Pizza My Heart before setting out on her own in 2018, opening Pizzaleah in March 2020. She's a 10-time pizza champion who has competed in competitions across the U.S. and Italy, and regulars around town point to her reputation, along with the crust quality and fresh toppings, as the draw. Service and a handful of popular signature pies come up often in conversation too.
