Trattoria Vesso: Halifax’s Home for Authentic Italian Cuisine

The only AVPN® certified restaurant in Nova Scotia

(Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, Naples AVPN®)

Trattoria Vesso serves authentic Italian comfort food in a relaxed atmosphere in downtown Halifax, with wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas, hearty lasagna and hand-stretched pasta made in-house daily. 

We offer a wide variety of wood-fired pizzas and homemade Italian dishes, from Neapolitan-style Margherita pizza made with the finest mozzarella, fresh basil and San Marzano tomatoes, to spaghetti tossed in a rich ragù and our "bambino pizzas" (kids' pizzas). Kids can also enjoy rolling pizza dough right at the table. Whether you're celebrating a birthday party, business lunch, family dinner, or a night out with friends, come by our restaurant and see why we always deliver an unforgettable culinary experience.

At Trattoria Vesso, we know an Italian meal goes beyond pizza and pasta. We also offer fresh salads made with locally sourced seasonal produce, and decadent classic Italian desserts like Tiramisu and Pizza alla Nutella.
