Afternoon all

Had a drink here on our last visit, It was a buzzing atmosphere.
We did say at the time, we would come back and give the Pizzas a go but did not get round to it.

It's on our list for August , Is it worth going or are there nicer Pizzas elsewhere.

Any replies appreciated.

Is the Pope a Catholic ?!? The pizza's are amazing and IMO Liitle Italy is the best location in the Port to eat one. As you already have said the place is buzzing and has loads of atmosphere. You will have to book,probably a couple of days in advance in August, especially if you want an outside table.

I know what you mean about location, but not so perfect if you are on one of the tables placed in the middle of (the narrow part of ) the Pine Walk, with walkers passing either side of the table while you eat an excellent pizza!:eek:

If you can't get a decent table at Little Italy, there is always the genuine Italian, La Roc, just round the corner.
 
As noted they are excellent. Staff could be a bit cheerier IMO! probably need 3-4 days advance booking at that time of the year, or could always eat them on the beach!
Laroc is very good, best pasta in the resort for me.
 
The Pizzas are amazing ..... Some years ago there was a review from I think the Sunday Times where the writer declared they were the best pizzas he had tasted outside Italy

Some of the staff are particularly easy on the eye as well 😄
 
Rates along with the Illa d'Or terrace as the best located eateries in the port IMO. Perfect for families with young kids, who can watch them play on the beach when they've finished eating. Remember the huge tree with lights in it that the kids used to climb up into?

Pizza - wise, personally I'd rate them as good, without being really outstanding. If truly great pizzas are what you're after then Bella Roma is your place (agIn IMO)
 
Pizzas great - staff not !!

Pizzas are great but staff can be a miserable bunch IMO. Essential to book your table days in advance and they warn you - if you're a minute late, they'll give your table away - :eek: The popularity of the place has made the staff really cocky. In fact they annoy me so much now, that we only ever go for a takeaway pizza which we eat on the beach. Shame. :(

Really? I have only ever found the staff charming and professional :confused:
 
Agree most of what has been said, but Laroc is really worth a try. Personally think that I have gotten better pizza there sometimes:) But Little Italy has a very good location :-)

I have to agree they have their favorites who they run about after. But they can be rude and off hand to others. I and members of my family have experienced this first hand. Great Pizzas and location but attitude needs an adjustment some times. So for me sorry but its a thumbs down. :(

Has anyone had a pizza at Manduca since it reopened (if they are still doing pizzas!) as IMO they were the best in the port:)
 
Agree with Doogz we had really good pizzas at Casa Vila,will be back in July for Tim to try the seafood one, they are big, plenty of topping.
 
Was NOT impresed with Little Italy at all. They took an age to bring a menu, got all three orders wrong, brought mains before starter's, each person recieved their order seperately with at least five minutes between, so if you were polite and waited until all three of us had our food, before eating, then two peoples meals would have been cold. Staff appalling, service atrocious, as was their demeaner. Never been since and wouldn't reccomend it to anyone. Lovely setting is the only positive comment that I can make.
 
I've eaten here. IMO it's one of those places that has an "in" reputation for probably no real reason that anyone can put their finger on.

The pizzas are good, that's it. It's right next to a building site, tables packed in and people brushing past you if you're near the pavement. Just the place to tell everyone you've been there? Yes a good sea view but then there are other restaurants that boast that as well.

Several other places to have a good pizza in PP anyway.
 
The couple of times that we have visited the staff have been more interest in talking to their friend rather than serving and have been abrupt. The Pizzas are ok but nothing special so we will give it a miss this year.

I think fil 6699 has hit the nail on the head here re. the staff - they definitely save their best service for people they know well. If you're just a regular tourist they simply can't be bothered. :mad:
Great location, but that's all IMO.
 
IMO it was better when it was the Coach house for those who remember :) a welcome for all and truly a Spanish part of the Pine walk . the loss of the Coach House and then the devastating loss of Katys .IMO Has changed the Pine walk in not a good way. I miss Katys as I am sure do many and what we are left with in the shape of Little Italy is not IMO a true reflection of PP and in particular the pine walk (what a shame)
 
It's my son (13) who is the big Pizza lover ( I can take them or leave them to be honest )

I will put up with a little bit of bad service if the Pizza is that good.

Thanks for all replies
Sean
