Và Fa Napoli Pizza

Và Fa Napoli Pizza, a food trailer in Annandale, NJ, brings the true essence of Naples to every bite. The name, traditionally a derogatory term, is reclaimed to honor Naples as a city of beauty, love, culture, and the birthplace of pizza. Every pizza served by Và Fa Napoli Pizza captures the spirit and authenticity of Neapolitan cuisine, echoing the vibrant life of the city’s music, art, and the picturesque bay.

Pasquale Truppi, who migrated from Airola in 1969, laid the foundation of this culinary legacy. Growing up in the family tomato business, he valued fresh ingredients and, together with his wife Civita, brought the traditions of making everything from scratch to the U.S. Settling in New Jersey, Pasquale’s dedication to quality and authentic flavors was passed on to his son, Carlo Mariano Truppi. Carlo, born in Naples, embraced his family’s love for great food and began cooking from a young age, inspired by the homemade pizza his mother Civita made.

In 2020, amid the pandemic, Carlo perfected his Neapolitan pizza recipe using a gas-fired pizza oven that became the highlight of their outdoor kitchen. Encouraged by the positive feedback from friends and neighbors, Carlo and his son Giancarlo, who was passionate about the family’s culinary traditions, decided to start their own business. With a perfect Neapolitan oven and a solid business plan, Và Fa Napoli Pizza was born. The Truppi family’s commitment to treating every guest like family ensures an exceptional dining experience, where the motto "Mangia ti fa bene" rings true—eat, it’s good for you!
