Liguria, Italy Food Guide: 10 Pizza food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Vernazza
Reviews on Pizza food in Vernazza, Liguria, Italy. With Cinque Terre’s only proper harbor, Vernazza has a long history as a fishing village. While there is a small beach, sightseeing is more common in this astoundingly beautiful cliffside town. Highlights include the 16th-century Belforte Tower (which offers incredible views of the area), the 11th-century Doria Castle and the 14th-century Santa Margherita d'Antiochia church. It involves a steep hike, but the shrine at Nostra Signora Di Reggio (Our Lady of Reggio) is well worth it.

We tried this restaurant after a recommendation from our hotel. Based on other places we ate, this was just average. They appeared to be understaffed and there was only one waiter responsible for the entire inside portion. It took over 10 minutes to get someone to notice us and put in a drink order. Then at least another 5 to 10 minutes to get our drinks (just a draft beer and a spritz). We ordered 4 oysters which I donât recommend. They were very small and my husband and I both felt queasy later in the evening after eating. We both had the spaghetti with seafood in aluminum packet. It was ok but limited amounts of seafood compared to other places we ate. In summary, there are better places to eat in the area.

This unassuming pizza restaurant was a pleasant surprise. We came upon it our first night in Vernazza and sat on the outdoor terrace which had a beautiful view of the boat harbor and the town. The servers were laid back and friendly, and my steak tartare was excellent. The anchovies in oil and my wife's caprese salad were also very tasty.

I don't know why I get in this location...maybe because there where the only free table in the area...I order the ''antique dish'', the potatoes with tomato sauce and Anchois...on my God, full with oil, no taste...My wife had the Fritto misto, another disappointing. We tried it in another restaurant and it was delicious!I think this people have clients just because of the location.Service was horrrible, I just don't want to remember...money throwed away!

You can book for an inside table (air conditioned), or get there early or wait for a street table. We booked an inside table, but when we got there at 19:30, there were street tables available, so we grabbed one. There are seats available while you wait and by 20:30 there were 4 couples waiting for perhaps 20 mins each. Not sure why we all want to eat on a busy street, but we do.All the food we saw looked lovely. We decided on a pasta - fest. We shared a house special - slices of pasta in a pesto sauce. One each would be too much unless you are really hungry. It was gorgeous and we cleared the plate. Then we both had the seafood ravioli with shrimp and sea bass. We washed it down with a carafe of the house local red (not subtle but very quaffable). No deserts for us, but I finished things off with a double espresso and a pine nut liquor. The total bill was â¬71. The service was slick and friendly.Superb.

I visited MG bar for lunch with my husband and a friend while on vacation from North Carolina. The employees there were very warm and friendly. They even helped me practice my Italian! We had pizza and pasta with pesto. Both were delicious! Definitely worth visiting this bar!!

Really delicious focaccia and cheese filled fry bread. I would eat this every single day! We also ate the chickpea flatbread which was very good. A must if you are in Monterosso.

Seems like we were an inconvenience with our waitress with that nasty attitude that italians can sometimes get. It seemed like we were causing her too much work! Unfriendly service. The 'signature pizzas' are pricey in comparison to others on the menu, but I they are good not doubt. The place was busy and I found our pizzas to be cold when delivered by another waiter. I will have to say that the pizza is very good, but with the service and attention that we received.... I can do without that part of the experience and will make me think twice about coming back. I ordered the prize winning Gola Pizza which named as an ingrediente crushed pine nuts.... I saw only a few.
