“The Slice of Life”: You Can Find it at Mulino According to Raleigh Magazine 😉

The duo of Melissa Howsam and Lauren Kruchten at Raleigh Magazine really said it best:

“Pizza is more than slapping sauce and cheese on a pie—it’s the ultimate connector… the slice of life, if you will: date-night flex, fam-night staple, late-night salvation. And Raleigh’s pizza boom is firing on all cylinders via NYC folds, Neapolitan blisters, deep-dish darlings and wild-card toppers. From purist pies to palate punches, the city’s serving it all. But let’s be real—not all are created equal. Only the most pillowy crusts, crispiest edges, freshest toppings and gooiest cheeses rise to the top. In crust we trust—these are the full-service Pizza Picks worth a pilgrimage.”

We’re thrilled to share that both Mulino Italian Kitchen & Bar and our sister restaurant La Terrazza were featured among the 13 best pizzas in Raleigh!

Here’s what Raleigh Magazine had to say about our award-winning pies:

“Serving up a triple threat of pizza, prosecco and panoramic (or poolside) views, what Samad Hachby is slicing up at La Terrazza and Mulino is a straight taste of Tuscany. The inventive pies range from classic (albeit transcendent) Margheritas to signature Mulino or Terrazza creations—all perfectly stone-baked in state-of-the-art Italian ovens. Think moisture-rich artisan Roman-style dough slathered in San Marzano or bechamel sauces and topped with the likes of fior di latte, gorgonzola agrodolce and market-fresh veggies, plus premium proteins like prosciutto, merguez sausage and grilled pesto chicken. At once posh and comforting—with primo vantage points to boot—these pies always deliver a slice of la dolce vita. It’s not just dinner—it’s a whole mood.“

Their favorite pick? The Mulino Pizza, crafted with prosciutto, arugula, organic baked egg, fior di latte, and authentic San Marzano sauce.

What Makes Our Pizza Different

At Mulino, our pizzas starts with Pinsa dough, an ancient Roman-style recipe made from a blend of flours, high hydration, and a long cold fermentation process. The result? A light, airy crust with a satisfying crunch that’s easier to digest and impossible to forget.

Our pizza alla romana style—thin and crispy—creates the perfect base for bold flavors and premium toppings, from hand-cut prosciutto to locally sourced vegetables.
