Our Story
The name Kai has a special meaning to us. Kai is the middle character of our founder and chef Simon's Chinese name, and in te reo Māori, kai means food. So Pizza Kai represents the connection between Simon's Chinese background and his life here in New Zealand.
Quality is at the heart of what we do. We make New York-style pizza with a thin, crispy crust and the classic fold. Every flavour is available as a big 18-inch pie, half pie and by the slice. Almost everything is made from scratch in our kitchen, including all our sauces and dough. Our dough goes through a 72-hour fermentation before it becomes a Pizza Kai pizza. We also use fresh, high-quality ingredients, chosen after testing and comparing different options several times to find the ones we believe offer the best quality and work best for our pizzas.
Along with quality pizza, creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere is just as important to us. We want everyone to feel comfortable walking into Pizza Kai. Whether you're ordering a dozen pizzas for a party, bringing one home to share with family and friends, or simply taking a break from a busy day to enjoy a slice on your own, you're always welcome to stop by. Whatever brings you in, just come as you are and enjoy your pizza the way you like it.
