• Pizzeria • Maroochydore

Booked 19 times today

Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples. Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

We had two outdoor tables for our party of 17. From greeting by waiter Tom. Excellent service very efficient. The food varied over the group, some meals were not nice, or average to lovely. I wish there was a vegan or vegetarian meal in the seniors meals. All in all we would definitely be coming back.

The food was fantastic couldn’t fault it. The girl taking my order was pleasant but I felt she only wanted to talk to the male staff rather than complete my order. Our server was extremely friendly and courteous as was the lady who came to clear the plates. We were there at 5pm and gone before 6pm, it was a Monday night and not during school holidays.

Amazing food. Amazing staff. Only thing I’d note is that it is very loud, had to yell across the table which I don’t love but overall. Beautiful restaurant, great food, lovely staff.
