About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for groups
Chef Hakan is a second-generation baker who learned his craft in his uncle's bakery in Istanbul. His love for baking started out with making pastries and sourdough bread at first.

Hit by a pizza obsession later on, similar to Anatolian flatbread, Chef Hakan studied, experimented, and observed various pizza-making methods. He participated in pizza expos, visited pizza restaurants, and tasted different styles of pizza around the world until buying a nice wood-fired pizza oven and creating his own recipe.

Then time came for Hakan to open up his restaurant. Previously known as Napa Baking Company is now serving in Napa as Croccante. Chef Hakan offers long-fermented Pan-style Detroit and Chicago thin tavern style pizza.

Croccante currently holds an award from 50 top pizza, as one of the 50 top pizzerias in USA in the "excellent" category as well as a nomination by SF Chronicle as One of the Top Pizzerias in the Bay Area.

    DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE!! The Detroit style pizza is beyond description. The flavors are amazing and the thick, light airy crust with crispy bottom cannot be compared to any pizza we’ve ever had. The wait staff are super friendly and responsive. 5 Star all the way.

    My mom said she was in the mood for Pizza so I looked on the map and chose this place based on the variety of the menu. I was sure what “Detroit” style pizza was but I was so impressed. It was so delicious and fresh tasting. The staff was all very welcoming and on top of their service. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area.

    Corccante Wings were amazing. Mushroom pizza and Croccante pizza were both very good- the crust was real Detroit style

    I returned to this place after a Year's absence + I suspect they must have a new chef because everything has gone downhill, In my opinion. The wings used to be crispy and juicy. Now they're pre-baked and not crispy and the meat is overcooked and dry. The pizza appears to have shrunk. It gets served perched upon an 8x10 pan but probably measure 6 and 1/2 by 8 in. And although the dough is airy and light, the bottom is overcharred and greasy. And the salad is completely overdressed and soggy. Something's wrong in the kitchen.

    Our first time at Croccante and it won't be our last. Tried a couple of Detroit-style pizza and beer and the food was great. Thanks Hakan!
