If you’ve visited Montauk in the past few years, you may recognize the name “Primavera Pizza” as you drive by the new red sign on Main Road in Mattituck. While it’s swapped one waterfront community for another, Primavera Pizza is indeed the same authentic New York pizzeria that used to service Montauk.

“Montauk is a really small community,” said owner Enzo Burriesci. “We were all like family over there. It was very hard for me to leave that spot.” Due to Montauk’s more seasonal nature, Burriesci felt the North Fork would be a better fit for a year-round pizzeria.
