A Life Built Around Pizza
Chef Giann on finding his craft, keeping pizza simple and building a business he can stay proud of.

Mobile pizza and catering in Brisbane.
Solo Italiano is Chef Giann’s mobile pizza and catering business in Brisbane. There is a red oven inside the truck, hand-stretched dough on the bench and a chef who is happiest talking about the food he makes.
Suited to
Finding a pizza truck for your next outing, or organising freshly made pizza for a private party, wedding, festival or corporate event.
Why this place
When Brisbane Food Guide visited Giann, the conversation kept coming back to the base, good ingredients and the regulars who return for his pizza. He prefers to keep things simple enough for the dough and toppings to work together. Our founder story follows the craft and the person behind the serving window.
What to order
Start with the Margherita. That is Giann’s own advice for a first order: fewer toppings give you a clearer taste of the base. The photographed menu also includes Pepperoni, San Daniele and a vegetable-topped pizza, with specials on a separate board.
Good to know
This is a mobile business, not a restaurant with a fixed daily address. Check @soloitalianoau for the next stop and service times before travelling. For catering, contact Giann with your date, location and guest count; availability and pricing need to be confirmed directly. BFG visited independently; this is not a paid or hosted feature.
