Wheated Menu

Wheated, located at 1553 Bardstown Rd in Louisville, specializes in artisan sourdough pizzas with crisp, charred edges and pleasantly chewy centers. The focused menu includes creative 16-inch pies, confit wings, pork-and-beef meatballs, seasonal salads, desserts, handcrafted cocktails, bourbon, wine, and beer. Recommended choices include the Bensonhurst, Canarsie, Bay Ridge, and Kentucky Brighton Beach pizzas.

Pizzas generally range from about $21 to $32, while starters are typically $11 to $14. The premium cheeses, carefully fermented dough, house-made sauces, seasonal produce, and generous pie size provide appealing value for sharing. Fresh herbs, aged mozzarella, Pecorino Romano, roasted vegetables, and cured meats create balanced combinations of tanginess, richness, gentle sweetness, and smoky flavor.

Several pizzas are vegetarian, including the Ditmas Park, Bensonhurst, Gravesend, and East Williamsburg. Vegan modifications may be possible, while gluten-sensitive guests should confirm current alternatives and cross-contact procedures. Salads and vegetable-topped pies offer lighter choices, and simple cheese pizza is approachable for children.

Wheated primarily serves dinner, making it ideal for date nights, family meals, drinks with friends, and casual group gatherings rather than breakfast or lunch.
