Cafe Verde Pizzeria in Corte Madera offers a vibrant menu that blends traditional Italian flavors with thoughtful local touches. Their pizza, a standout, features both classic and inventive options, like the Sarda Pizza with figs, goat cheese, and arugula on a creamy besciamella base, or the spicy Portofino with jalapeno and sausage. The crust is perfectly balanced—light, crunchy, yet chewy—a detail praised by many diners. Beyond pizza, their salads are fresh and well-composed, such as the beet salad with roasted almonds and goat cheese in lemon dressing, and the classic Caesar with house-made croutons. For those seeking hearty Italian fare, linguini al pesto and savory eggplant parmesan are great choices. The selection of red wines, including Nebbiolo and Amarone, complements the menu beautifully. Desserts like tiramisu and a delicate grandmother’s lemon custard cake provide a sweet finish. The relaxed atmosphere and attentive service make dining here feel like a genuine community experience.
