Real Pizza.
Real Pizza.
Real Fire.
Real Good.
Wood-fired, hand-tossed, and made from scratch every day. No shortcuts — just flour, fire, and the best ingredients we can find.
Our Story
Built on Fire
Built on Fire
and Flour
Pizza By Paras isn't a franchise or a chain. It's a neighborhood spot on Railroad Avenue where the oven runs hot, the dough is mixed by hand, and every pie that comes out of the fire is treated like it's going on someone's table tonight — because it is.
Our crust is fermented slow, our sauces are made from whole tomatoes, and our toppings are chosen because they actually taste like something — not because they're convenient. If it's on the menu, it's because we'd make it at home.

The Menu
What We Make
Every pie starts with our hand-stretched dough, san marzano–style sauce, and fresh mozzarella. Add your toppings — or let us surprise you.
Wood-Fired Oven
Our deck oven hits 800°F. That's what gives the crust its char, its lift, and that smoky flavor you can't fake.
72-Hour Dough
We ferment our dough for three full days. Cold-fermented, hand-stretched, never rushed. That's how you get a crust like this.
Local Ingredients
When we can source from Maine farms and purveyors, we do. Tomatoes, herbs, dairy — the best we can find, nothing imported for the sake of it.
Made to Order
No assembly-line shortcuts. Every pizza is built, baked, and sliced to order. It takes what it takes — and it's worth the wait.
