Born in Arenaccia, Napoli, Vincenzo Santoro—better known as Pizza Kid—embodies the talent, passion, and tradition
that Ciro Iovine has always worked to cultivate at Song’ E Napule.

LEARN THE SECRETS OF NEAPOLITAN PIZZA WITH
VINCENZO SANTORO

Before bringing his craft to the United States, Vincenzo honed his skills in London and Amsterdam, carrying a piece of Napoli with him from one kitchen to the next.

At Song’ E Napule, Vincenzo found more than a place at the oven. He became part of the family Ciro has grown around the restaurant—a family that believes in its people, opens doors, and celebrates every victory together. In 2024, that journey led Vincenzo to Las Vegas, where he won the Neapolitan Pizza Division at the International Pizza Challenge.

Now, Song’ E Napule’s pizza-making classes are returning, with Vincenzo leading their next chapter. These evenings have always been about more than following a recipe. They bring people around the counter to get flour on their hands, learn the ingredients, gestures, and secrets behind authentic Neapolitan pizza—and then sit down to enjoy what they created together.

Come learn from a world champion. Make your own pizza. And, for one evening, become part of the Song’ E Napule family.

  • "Incredible night at Song 'E Napule! Taking a class here felt less like a cooking lesson and more like a massive Italian family dinner. The hands-on instruction is top-notch, and eating the pies straight out of the wood-fired oven is unbeatable."
