Newton’s Da LaPosta Pizzeria To Begin Offering Lunch

NEWTON, MA — Da LaPosta pizzeria owner and chef Mario LaPosta announced Monday that he will begin offering lunch Monday through Saturday from 12 to 3 p.m.

The new lunch menu will feature six different da LaPosta pizzas, including a traditional Margherita of mozzarella, tomato, and basil, the best-selling New Haven Clam made with Manila clams, pancetta, oregano, chili, garlic, and Pecorino, and a Bianco pie of fig jam, lardo, Pecorino, and arugula.

There will also be a new selection of luncheon-sized dishes and panini sandwiches, from a freshly prepared asparagus frittata to a shaved fennel and apple salad. The menu includes an Italian Panino with house-made Ciabatta, Prosciutto di Parma, Hot Soppressata, Tempesta Mortadella, House-made Mozzarella, and Giardiniera relish, as well as a Porchetta Panino on house-made Focaccia, Broccoli Rabe, Garlic and Rosemary Aioli, and sliced Provolone.

Da LaPosta, inspired by a love of food and hospitality with Italian roots and a New England flair, opened at 825 Washington Street in Newton last year. Naturally leavened, artisanal pizza is at the center of the seasonal menu, along with street food-inspired starters, handmade pasta, and a wine list boasting the best of Campania and Southern Italy.
