Pizza in Stratford, CT

La Fortuna Bar & Restaurant is a family-owned restaurant, serving Italian cuisine and brick oven pizza.
Phily is the master of cuisine as well as the founder of La Fortuna Bar & Restaurant.
The State of Connecticut and Italian food go hand-in-hand, like spaghetti and meatballs. In the late 18th century through the early 20th century, many Albanians immigrated to Italy where they obtained tremendous experience in Italian cuisine. They later flocked from Italy to the United States looking for opportunities. They brought their culinary traditions along with them to neighborhoods that later became Little Italy and Hell's Kitchen.
Drawing on simple ingredients and the techniques used in the Motherland, La Fortuna offers classic dishes such as saltimbocca, braciole, lasagna, cacio e pepe, and brick oven pizza. This is how we offer a selection for those looking for a taste of home.
Our goal is to use ingredients that elevate, not mask, the dish's focal point. According to Phily, this is the “art of eating well.” This philosophy is what ranks Phily’s cooking as some of the best Italian in Connecticut.
