Northern California’s pizza scene is diverse. From fine dining to old-school family pizzerias to food trucks, you can find all types of pizza in NorCal. Federalist Pizza, a Northern California pizza place in Sacramento,, has a unique take on pizza that you won’t find anywhere else. One of its most unique and popular pizzas has chorizo and chili oil– and locals love it!

The “Southside” pizza has fresh mozzarella, fontina, potatoes, pork chorizo, cilantro, and chili oil.

We also like the “Chavez” pizza, which is topped with fresh mozzarella, fontina, oven-roasted carnitas, onions, house salsa verde, Mexican crema, and cilantro. All the pizzas are made fresh in their wood-fired oven.
These Mexican-inspired pizzas pair well with their delicious salads and appetizers such as their large Italian-style charcuterie board.

We appreciate that Federalist Pizza also has gluten-free and vegan options, making this restaurant a great choice to satisfy the appetites and preferences of large groups.
Federalist Pizza is both a pizzeria and a taproom. Guests can try one or more of the rotating local craft beers on tap.
