About Pizza E Vino

A nostalgic High Street staple, Pizza E Vino serves up old-school Italian comfort with warmth and zero fuss. Owner Enzo works the dining room, checking in on multi-generational family tables and milestone celebrations. The kitchen keeps portions unapologetically generous—from thin-crust wood-fired pizzas to a massive parma that spans its own plate. Evenings often wind down over house-made tiramisù or seafood linguine piled high with mussels and scallops.

  • Hands-on host hospitality: Owner Enzo greets diners tableside, setting a nostalgic, welcoming tone for family gatherings and celebratory groups.
  • Substantial comfort staples: Classic chicken parmigiana arrives plate-spanning and oversized alongside hefty bowls of pasta and risotto.
  • Wood-fired pizza: Crisp, thin bases blistered in the wood-fired oven and topped with fresh garlic, prawns, or vegetables.

  • Famous Plate-Spanning Monster Parma

    The kitchen serves an exceptionally oversized chicken parmigiana that requires its own platter.

    The chicken parma is so big it needs its own plate.

  • Generous Classic Comfort Staples

    Generously topped wood-fired pizzas feature crisp crusts and uncompromised traditional flavors.

    The pizzas are excellent—generous toppings, quality ingredients, and a perfectly cooked base with that classic flavour that’s becoming harder to find these days.

Before you head over

Practical planning advice for family dining, parking, and ordering at Pizza E Vino.

  • Plan Parking Around Back

    High Street parking can fill quickly; head to the backstreets or the Mitchell Street car park directly behind the restaurant for easier vehicle parking.

  • Pace Your Course Orders

    Kitchen dishes can take time during peak dining, with tapas and mains occasionally served together. Stagger your orders or leave extra time when dining with large groups.

  • Prepare for Substantial Portions

    Portions run unusually large—the parmigiana alone can take up an entire plate. Plan to share or balance hearty mains with lighter starters.
