Many families have been coming back holiday after holiday for more than twenty years. It has almost 1,000 Google reviews with a 4.3 rating.

What to order. Thin, crisp pizzas in many varieties, pasta and lasagne, and starters that are unusual for a pizzeria, such as prawn vol-au-vent. There are vegetarian options and a children's menu, and you pay €10-20 per person.

Opening hours. Every day 13:30-15:30 and 19:30-23:00. There is a terrace, you can book, and they do takeaway and delivery.

Good to know. It is very busy: waits can be long, it is quite noisy and some pizzas are inconsistent. If you are staying in the upper part of town, delivery is a good option. More pizzerias in our guide to pizzerias in Nerja.
