If you don’t know how to pronounce the full name of DiMeo’s Pizzaiuoli Napulitani, don’t feel bad. “People ask all the time,” says owner Antimo DiMeo, “but sometimes it doesn’t help.” All you really need to know is that DiMeo’s in Wilmington is a Neapolitan pizza maker, which means that all ingredients come from the Old Country—imported flour, San Marzano tomatoes from Campania, true buffalo mozzarella and olive oil. You should also know that DiMeo’s serves more than pizza. You’ll find baked classics like lasagna and eggplant Parmagiana, pasta dishes, steak sandwiches and salads. It’s a new concept for the DiMeo family, whose other four restaurants serve New York-style pizza. (831 Market St., 655-1427, dimeospizza.com) —Mark Nardone
