Little Italy is the cheapest and busiest pizzeria in the centre of Nerja. It is at Calle Hernando de Carabeo 17, about 200 metres from the Balcón de Europa, and opens every day from 12:00 to midnight. It has more than 3,300 Google reviews and a 3.7 rating: almost everyone agrees you eat a lot for very little, and almost everyone warns that you will have to wait.

What to order. The home-made pizzas are the main draw, but the menu also has pasta, meat and simple Italian dishes. There are vegetarian and gluten-free options and a children's menu. Portions are large and prices are among the lowest in Nerja. They serve beer and wine; no breakfast or cocktails.

Good to know. In summer and at weekends a queue forms at the door and, once seated, food can take a while. Negative reviews mention waits of an hour and stretched service at peak times, and cleanliness is the lowest-rated aspect. To avoid the wait, go early (it opens at noon) or order takeaway: they also deliver. You can book, and there is a terrace.

Who it suits. Families and groups who want a cheap dinner near the Balcón without fuss. If you are after more careful Italian cooking and don't mind paying a little more, our guide to pizzerias in Nerja has others a few minutes' walk away.
