Via Napoli Pizzeria

I went to Via Napoli for the first time last night in a group of 9 girls. We had heard of the extraordinarily large pizzas and thought we'd challenge ourselves and purchase the 2metre pizza.

 Menu

The restaurant has a very extensive menu, so if you're not up for metres of pizza or 40kg of mozzarella  there are plenty of pasta and seafood options to satisfy smaller appetites. The staff were very energetic and very friendly. If you celebrate a birthday here you are welcomed by the entire crew banging pots and pans and signing to you in Italian before handing you a scrumptious dessert. The skill of carrying two metres of pizza and placing it on a packed table is also quite impressive. 

The restaurant has a very lively atmosphere. It can be very noisy as it attracts large groups of both families and younger adults. The roar of both guests and staff as a large pizza is brought out also adds to the hustle and bustle. It is not a quiet romantic evening however these quirks are what makes it stand out from any other Italian restaurant. 

Prosecco: glass $8.50 bottle $34

 It is both BYO and fully licensed.

2 metre Pizza $130 

The selection of pizza on the 2m pizza is pre-decided to ensure efficient service. It contained 5 different types of pizza including mozzarella, prosciutto, Italian sausage, marinara and ham and pepperoni. 

If you're picky about your pizza the 1m pizza is able to be adapted to suit your preferences. And if you're in a smaller group both 13inch and half metre pizzas are available. The pizza was great quality and contained a sufficient amount of topping. It was on a thinner base so it is best if you eat it quickly before it goes soggy from the tomato paste. Between the 9 of us this pizza provided about 3 decent sized pieces each. 

And yes, we did finish it all !

I would definitely recommend this restaurant as it is a fun night out with great food. 

Booking is essential on weekends particularly for big groups. 

I give it a rating of 4 out of 5.
