Pizzeria Il Vesuvio - VENTIMIGLIA

We looked everywhere to find a places to eat at night. This place opened early at 6pm so we came here after walking by at lunch. We killed time after the Friday mkt and lunch at Geppy's as part of our day trip from Menton. I wanted Pizza and this place did not disappoint. I've had real pizza in Naples a few yrs agos and nothing matched that. Yes it's only 5 Euros in Naples but it's only like 8 Euros here. I got the Grilled veg pizza (eggplant, zuchi, artichoke). The crust was perfect and thick around edges like Naples and thin on the inside. Good ingredients too. It was only 10 Euros. We also had Rigatonii carbonara for 13 Euros and the bacon chunks were very smokey . A .5Litre of house wine was only 6 Euros. We were all happy until the bill came and was shocked at the 2 Euro pp cover. Yes i know it's italy and some charge and some don't. Our lunch at a trendier place didn't have cover. At the end it was still good and reasonable with the extra 4 Euros (i just thought of it as an add on to the cheaper than normal wine). Come try this place. Lots of locals.

Really nice dinner with friends, food and service were really good, I recommend this place compared to others in the area, if you are in Ventimiglia Alta make sure you stop by, they have great Pizzas.

When arrived we came without a reservation and asked the staff if they still had a table for four. They immediately made a spot ready for us on the opposite of the street. The staff was super friendly and tried their best to speak English. The food was great as expected. I had spaghetti vongole (with clams), my wife had rigatoni carbonara and my daughter a pizza with italian meat (bresaola) and my son had french fries because he wasn’t hungry. It all tasted like it came from grandmoghers kitchen directly! So delicious! A true recommendation to all who want the taste of Italy. All was perfect! A spot worthy of the top 3 in Ventimiglia!

Passati per caso, e guardando le recensioni abbiamo scoperto questo ristorante Cameriere gentili, posto carino Le pizze che abbiamo preso, visivamente molto belle, al gusto buonissime, abbiamo preso tutti la stessa pizza: pizza primavera con aggiunta di passata di pomodoro (olive taggiasche, pomodori, mozzarella e bufala). Conto: nella media

I loved this pizza place. Napolitano was our favorite. Everything else we tried was also very good.
