i. Biography
Vittorio Figurato co-founded Fratelli Figurato in Madrid in 2017, putting Neapolitan Pizza at the center of the project from day one. The aim was not just to open a dining room, but to build a setting where the food would carry place, discipline, and reference point in the same frame. Figurato put it plainly: “We want to convey authenticity, so that when the diner enters our restaurants, they feel like they are in Italy.”

In Madrid, the work has stayed centered on that balance: a clear line back to Naples, shaped for a room that is meant to feel immediate.
Today

Over time, the focus has not shifted, and the kitchen has stayed anchored to the same core that shaped it at the beginning.
