Pizza in Copenhagen
Where does pizza come from? It is widely believed that pizza originated in Naples, where the dough is baked quickly in a wood-fired oven at very high temperatures. This results in a softer base and the characteristic dark “leopard spots” on the crust.
At MaMeMi, we prefer Roman-style pizza, which has a thinner and crispier base. This is partly because it is baked for a longer time at a lower temperature, and partly because it uses lighter, more minimalist toppings, creating the ultimate flavor experience. Come and taste the difference.
Good Italian restaurant in Copenhagen
Where can you find a great Italian restaurant in Copenhagen when you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience? The answer is simple: at MaMeMi. Even if you prefer pasta over pizza, we have a solution. We’ve created a range of pizzas inspired by classic Roman pasta dishes.
A great example is our pizza inspired by pasta carbonara, topped with authentic guanciale, egg cream, pecorino, and generous amounts of freshly ground black pepper. If you prefer tomato-based pasta dishes, we also offer a pizza inspired by pasta puttanesca, made with anchovies, tomatoes, capers, and garlic. Buon appetito!
Perfect Wine Pairings for Your Pizza
Pizza is usually paired with beer, but we like to challenge that. The right glass of natural wine changes the whole experience of a meal, which is why our Italian wine bar in Copenhagen carries over 1000 labels chosen specifically to match our pizzas.
Try our pizza inspired by pasta puttanesca with a crisp Garganega from Veneto, its mineral freshness balances the anchovies and capers perfectly. Our Cacio e Pepe pizza pairs beautifully with a Chianti Classico, whose acidity cuts through the richness of the three pecorino cheeses. And our Guanciale pizza, topped with caramelized onions and balsamic glaze, is a natural match for a full-bodied Valpolicella Ripasso.
Vegan pizza in Copenhagen
Are you vegan but still have a love for pizza? Come and enjoy vegan pizza at our Italian restaurant in Copenhagen, located in the city center. We use only the finest ingredients to ensure that every pizza is fresh and full of flavor. Each pizza is carefully composed to bring out the best in plant-based ingredients, so you can enjoy a pizza that is not just an alternative, but a culinary experience in its own right. Try our vegan pizza and discover how taste and quality go hand in hand, perfectly paired with a glass of wine.

★★★★☆
I have been here at least 3 times in the last months, the pizza gets better every visit. I am Italian and every time I visit with my friends we get an extra one to share because the dough is so light. The Sardinian guy on floor always suggest great combination with the wine, but also the other staff always suggest the best available things. Good balance price quality too. Definitely a should try in Copenhagen.

Real pizza romana in CPH - Amazing Italian pizza with fresh and delicious Italian ingredients. If you miss Italy or you want to try the real pizza romana you must try this place.
★★★★★
A little space where Italians (especially from Rome) can feel at home! We moved to Denmark a few months ago from Rome and we've been looking for a REAL pizza for ages. Finally, we found Mamemi! Pizza and beers are great, waitress and waiters are amazing, it felt like home. Thank you very much! Desserts are a little bit expensive in my opinion, but we shared one and it was really really good. We've been there twice in a month, and we can't wait to go back!
★★★★★

One of the best pizzas ever! The pizza, the service, the dessert, the whole menu - everything was absolutely perfect! We really love exploring new pizza places especially when we travel somewhere and this one was definetely one of the best we have ever eaten! The dough was crunchy, thin and tasty and the toppings are organic, fresh, full of flavour…it is a bit busy so if you can put down the reservation! 10/10 would recommend.

Bedste pizza ever! Stedet ser ikke ud af noget særligt, men maden, vinen og betjeningen er i særklasse. Har aldrig smagt så delikate pizzaer før. Tjeneren var uddannet sommelier og havde enorm viden om italienske vine. Vinkortet var meget omfattende og spændende.
