From the Carolina’s Eater website, ‘It would be easy to argue that Pizzeria Toro launched Durham’s obsession with wood-fired, artisan pizza, and this downtown staple from chef Gray Brooks (Littler, Jack Tar) still tops many lists of the best pizza in the Triangle. Offerings change based on the seasons, but there is always a variety of both red and white-sauced pizzas, like the prosciutto cotto with olives and asiago (red sauce) or the soft egg pizza with trumpet mushrooms, arugula, and parmesan (white sauce). Make sure to always ask for the extra side of the house-made red chili oil.’ Vivian recommends ordering the ricotta dumplings.
