🔥🌶️ Sweet and spicy
Our Nduja pizza brings the heat with spicy Calabrian 'nduja, drizzled with hot honey, topped with tangy pickled red onions and finished with fresh basil.
A little fire, a touch of sweetness, a hint of acidity.
For those who like their pizza with a little attitude. 🍕🔥
Come and taste it at Corlie’s Italian!

Our Margherita starts with our own special sauce, finished with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, a sprinkle of Grana Padano and fresh basil — all before it goes into our wood-fired oven.
Because sometimes, the classics are all you need.
🍕 Made with love at Corlie’s Italian.

Real fire. Real ingredients. Real Neapolitan pizza.
Hand-stretched dough, carefully selected toppings and the unmistakable flavour of our wood-fired oven.
A little taste of Naples, right here at Corlie’s Italian.

PASTA CHEF WANTED — SOMERSET WEST
This is not just another kitchen job.
We’re looking for a serious Pasta Chef with a deep love for authentic Italian food and the skill, discipline and pride to match.
At Corlie’s, we believe simple food can be extraordinary — but only when the ingredients are excellent, the technique is right, and the person behind the plate genuinely cares.
We’re looking for someone who understands that great pasta is a craft.
YOU SHOULD KNOW YOUR WAY AROUND:
• Fresh pasta made from scratch
• Filled and shaped pastas
• Proper pasta doughs and hydration
• Classic Italian sauces and preparations
• Cooking pasta correctly and finishing it in the sauce
• Ingredient quality, balance and restraint
• Consistency during a busy service
• A clean, disciplined and organised kitchen
We are not looking for someone who simply has “pasta” somewhere on their CV.
We want a chef who is curious, obsessive about quality, proud of their craft and constantly trying to make the next plate better than the last.
Experience in a strong Italian kitchen or serious fresh-pasta environment will be a major advantage.
Applicants must be legally eligible to work in South Africa and able to provide the required documentation. References will be checked.
Shortlisted candidates should expect a practical cooking trial as part of the selection process.
If authentic Italian cooking excites you, if you know the difference between simply making food and mastering a craft, and if you believe your pasta can speak for itself — we want to meet you.
Send us your CV, references and a short introduction telling us about your experience with Italian cuisine and fresh pasta.

There’s something special about simple, honest flavours.
Our vanilla gelato is made slowly, in small batches, with real vanilla and a lot of care. Smooth, creamy, and quietly beautiful — the kind of gelato that reminds you why the classics never go out of fashion.
Available at Corlie’s Italian.
Come taste a little scoop of happiness. 🍨✨
