Gustoso.Saporito. Spettacolare.This Napoli Italian Pizzaeria and bar set in Mary Ester by Navarre Beach was Delizioso. As you enter you see Fausto their pizza chef extroidinaire stretching handmade pizza dough made with Italian ingredients by the pizza oven. HOW he does this with talking in Italian with guests at the bar and not watching the dough is an art. The 3 TV screens near our bar top tables play Andrea Bocelli videos as we were greeted warmly by Lisa our server and Sunny the owner. The appetizer: A must .3 meatballs served in a flavorful sauce .It is all about the sauce and they definitely got it right with Italian tomatoes from Italy and enough to dip our homemade Italian bread. So good we couldn't stop. Our Florentine pizza was equally exquisite .With spinach ,garlic ,tomato sauce and mozzarella. This was a perfect blend of flavors served hot and steamy . The owner even told us to wait 45 seconds so as to not burn our mouth since it came from a 700 degree oven. Would absolutely return every time came back to this area for the spectacular service and atmosphere. It is a short jaunt from the beach .This meal made our stomachs filled with their generous portions and hearts happy. read more

Great service. The owner is so friendly and welcoming. Feels like he's known you for a long time. Clean restaurant and bathrooms. The food is great! There were 4 of us-- we split a large house salad, meatballs, bruschetta, garlic bread, and the carbonara. The garlic is SO garlicky and delicious. The portions were good, the salad was huge. Everyone was satisfied. I wish I had grabbed photos of everything, but we immediately dived into the food. The owner was attentive to the children and ensured we had a great dining experience. It's somewhere we're going to start frequenting! read more

Wow! I can't brag on this place enough. Ambiance is amazing, and the owner is AWESOME! He even gave my mom and I a free/fresh two slices of a pizza (he just pulled out of the fire brick oven) to enjoy on our beach outing AFTER we ate. Definitely going back TONS of times! read more

A wonderful experience there today. Super friendly staff and owner. Treated our children with great respect. The food was really good. My 5 yr old has never eaten so much pizza in one sitting. Clearly a good homemade meal. Thanks for a great dinner! read more

I have been looking for a great pizza closer to home. I just found it. I stopped in for lunch when visiting a store in Mary Ester. I haven't had great luck with pizza joints here in the panhandle. This is an exception Ordered the meat lovers pizza and when it came out it had the best, brick oven crust cooked to perfection. This pizza gave me flashbacks of some of the great St Louis pizza joints. Great little facility and right off 98. Wish it was a little closer to Gulf Breeze but worth the drive either way. read more

The pizza was okay. Not the best but not the worst. We ordered a half supreme/half pepperoni and they didn't divide it very well, there was 2.25 pieces with pepperoni. This wasn't worth the $25 in our opinion. I'd come back to try the pasta dishes, but not their pizza. read more

Came here last night for Friday pizza night and it was all great! We shared the chapters, focaccia, and supreme pizza. Telltale sign of a legit Naples restaurant is the pizza dough, and it did not disappoint! Of course we were informed the chef is from Naples. The owner is so nice and friendly, too! Can't wait to come back. read more

Back again and nothing changes from my last review.. get here and find out how real pizza should taste. read more

It doesn't get much better than this gem. The choice in pizza is incredible and the lasagna and gnocchi is to die for.

Great for a date night. Real Italian cuisine.....great service .....recommend reservations!

Amazing pizza, amazing pasta. The service was on point as well. Ordered to-go but the place seemed like a very relaxing place to dine!

I placed an order for pickup: 1 Fausto's pizza and paid the additional $5.00 for extra Prosciutto (based on the picture on their website) and 1 Calzone Nutella. I even paid 20% tip for a pick up. The pizza did not have additional Prosciutto and just lacked toppings in general. Was very disappointed. The calzone was warm and alright but just a lackluster experience overall. I wouldn't recommend ordering extra toppings if you're picking up the order. read more

Amazing pizza!! The crust is one of the best I've had in a very long time. We also had the Lasagne and the Alfredo which were also fabulous! The owner and chef are super friendly, as is the wait staff. We loved the casual atmosphere. Wine and beer are available. There is a kids menu - our 4 grandkids loved the pizza, too! read more

Food was awesome Service was amazing Ambiance was lovely one of our new favorite spot! read more

Sunny, chef and staff are welcoming and truly it is the best Italian food in Mary Esther. Or anywhere in Florida! Authentic Italian cuisine and I recommend the eggplant parmigiana and any pizza! 10+10 read more

Always a superb experience. Quality and taste are impeccable every single time. The rest of the family had pizza's which were excellent! I went with four cheese meatballs and man oh man they were flavorful and delicious, not to mention huge!!If you haven't met Sonny the owner ensure you say hello read more

This place is stupid good. The food is amazing. Every time I come I meet someone a tourist or a snow bird that comes here every year. The owner is the friendliest guy you'll ever meet and provide the best service. It feels like a small family restaurant serving phenomenal Italian food, and that's exactly what it is. read more

The food is delicious. It is prepared fresh and is really good. I really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere.

Overall a very charming spot. The food is incredible, the owner is a super nice guy and I just really recommend this place to everyone. There hours aren't what you typically see with most restaurants so just make sure you go whenever they're open (duh) and try not to get there before they close cause the kitchen guy leaves early! read more

This place is a GEM, Sunny took care of us with so much attention and care. The food was super authentic cooked to perfection, we had their Rigatoni Boscaiola and Sofia pizza. We can't wait to come back! read more

So, five stars on service and taste, the waiter was super friendly and attentive and everything tasted amazing; the restaurant interior is quite nice as well. The only minor issue would be that the pasta meal sizes are not consistent...went with a friend and we both ordered pasta, which was decently expensive, mine was huge and his only had six raviolis in it, which isn't really what I'd consider a meal. They are a pizza place though, so I'm sure the pizza is a five star experience. Overall it was great, I just think for the price you pay some of the pasta dishes should be much larger. read more

1st time this evening visiting LA Casa Bianca in Florida. The best hands down Woodfire pizza. Pizz, appitzers, Calzone, lobster ravioli with spinach sauce. Omg, if you don't stop by here you are missing one of the greatest Italian experiences. Dessert were wonderful. Service was great and the muscles from the 80s was a great touch. Over all great food, great service won't eat anywhere else from now even it come to Italian food. read more

Outstanding! Everything we've ordered has been absolutely delicious! The best authentic italian pizza in the area!! read more

Super friendly staff and food was fresh and flavorful! What Olive Garden was when you were a kid!

If I could give you a higher rating, I would. I had been looking for a restaurant in the area, that would remind me of pizza from my hometown: Naples, Italy. Said that, you understand that my expectations for a great pizza are very high. I am very picky, when it comes to details. I always found something wrong with the brick oven pizzas, that I tried, up to yesterday. Not anymore. This is the go to restaurant, for authentic Neapolitan pizza, made with fresh ingredients. Fausto, the pizzaiolo from Naples, told me what he uses to make it. I also, saw the can of san Marzano tomatoes. I was in heaven. Just like they make it in Napoli. 110% Recommended. They also have other type of pizza on the menu, that might suit the American taste. Lisa was very nice and the service and the actual restaurant very, very pleasant. Happy Happy Happy read more

Wow, just wow! Amazing find. Some of the best meatballs I have ever had in my life. Worthy of any high end NY city italian restaurant. Pizza was top notch. Flavorful crust with just the right thickness and crunch. All fresh ingredients and homemade sauce make for a great pizza. No wait and prices were reasonable. Service was excellent (thanks Lisa). We will be back again and again. read more

La Casa Bianca - Supreme pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Mary Esther, Florida

We ate here for the first time the other night and everyone (even my super picky eaters!!) was beyond pleased! The food was impeccable and the quality of service was the cherry on top. The worst part about our visit was trying not to order everything on the menu We will absolutely be back! read more

A very small place but it packs a punch with flavor and offerings, especially being in Mary Esther! Authentic pizza made by a Pizzaiuolo from Naples, yes, he's the real deal! Burrata was fresh on a bed of greens with aged balsamic. A little too sweet for me so next time we'll ask for the vinegar on the side for dipping. We created our own pizza with half Italian meats. It was cooked to perfection and the meat quality was higher than we expected. We have never ordered the pasta but I've seen enough plates coming out of the kitchen to know the portions are a good size and it looks delicious. Now, keep in mind, this is not a fancy spot. You'll get bottled water, canned soda, etc. They have a few low-end decent wines on their menu, and we normally order a bottle and drink with our meal at the bar. They have beer too. But the food makes up for the lack of ambiance, and the prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food they're serving. The owner is always very nice as well and makes you feel welcome whether you're a local or a tourist. read more

This review gets two stars because I have tried to call to place an order for pickup and 3/3 of the times they have not answered. One of those times I drove to the restaurant, assuming maybe they were too busy to answer the phone, but when I arrived they were closed for the day despite their hours online stating they were open. I did however happen to be driving by one weekday and saw their parking lot had a few cars outside, so I decided to give it a shot. The AC inside was out so it was almost as hot inside as it was outside. The pizza turned out to taste ok, about a 7/10. Overall if they took care of their servicing issues regarding hours of operation matching what shows online, answering the phone when open and able, and making the inside environment comfortable enough to want to sit down, I'd consider trying again or perhaps even recommending it to others. Instead I'll go down the street to Da' Matteo where they don't have these issues. read more

We visit Navarre once a year and I've never found a restaurant I love. Until now! La Casa Bianca is really, really good and the owner Sunny is a nice guy. They serve Neopolitan style pizza (cooked quickly in a high temperature wood oven, which results in a nice crispy crust and softer middle) and they do a great job. As good as any I've had in Chicago. All four of us approved of the meatballs with red gravy and we loved our carbonara. The egg yolk is already mixed up in the noodles when it arrives so don't be looking to break your own. Our friends liked their gemelli with sausage (a special that day). The cannoli shell was freshly filled and nice and crisp. Love it - go now! Update: the burrata is very tasty. Great balsamic. read more

We decided to try the two pizzerias in Mary Esther. The Marquerita pizza was excellent. So, we returned a later time and ordered the Spaghetti a la Pescatore. Bland, no basil, dill or fresh pepper or garlic really ...but the little bit of seafood that was on that plate was fresh. The pizza was good. read more

Hear me out - we tried this place on a whim because it had good reviews and we were craving some good pizza. The inside is all right - kind of a hole in the wall. We both ordered a soda to drink and all beverages are served in cans. We got some vibes that this place would not be that great The food was amazing. We had a wood fired pizza. The crust was equally chewy and crispy and the sausage was crumbly and hand made. Service was great. We ordered a tiramisu and key lime pie for dessert. The desserts were all right, nothing special, but good none the less. read more

Absolute PERFECTION! REAL WOOD FIRE. Chef from Naples. While nothing else needs to be said, staff is awesome and friendly. When we move back I will probably live here. Mushroom ravioli amazing! Marg was perfect! read more

I'd heard good things and wasn't disappointed. We ordered take out and the dude there was super helpful in recommending how we transport the pizza home. As for the pizza, delicious. My only quibble was that it was a little thing at the middle for my taste - more like a personal pizza at a sit down you may use with a fork and knife vs a take out or walk away slice you'd get in NYC. read more

Fantastic authentic Italian food. The prices and servings are perfect. Good service, friendly people, feel like you are with friends and family. read more

So I'm on vacation with 5 friends and we were looking for a Mexican restaurant. We got the impression from the name that this was a Mexican restaurant, but we should have looked at the review pictures! Anyhoo, we were seated pretty quickly and most of our drinks were bottled water because it was either that or canned soda. I picked the cauliflower pizza, but also ate some caprese. The waitress brought out dishes not all at once, but I'm assuming when they were made so some of us got our meals quicker than others. The caprese was tasty, especially on top of the bread provided (although there wasn't quite enough for the amount of caprese in my opinion). We were really surprised the spaghetti and meatball(s) only had one meatball. The cauliflower pizza was a bit crispy on the crust and super smooshy towards the center, but it was pretty tasty. read more

La Casa Bianca - Spaghetti & Meatballs! - Pizza Near Me - Mary Esther, Florida

La Casa Bianca is an absolute MUST-visit if you are in the area. The food will blow you out of this world as it is authentic Italian cuisine. The pizza chef (honestly, he is the BEST) is from Napoli and his skill and technique produce a product that you won't forget. All of the ingredients are super fresh and the pizza options are hand-tossed and cooked in a wood fire oven. It's truly an experience if you visit, as you can watch the whole process of your pizza item being made! I take my orders to-go, but love ordering in the restaurant, so I can watch the cooking process. I literally visit once a week! I discovered them the third week they opened, and the only get better every week. Not even exaggerating. My go-to order is the vegetariana pizza with sausage. (This defeats the purpose of ordering a vegetarian pizza, but I like it like this. The sausage is not too salty, but just right.) The pizza always has a generous amount of toppings on it and the sauce is very good. My favorite part is the crust, as it has this incredible bounce to it. I also always order the burratta. The burrata comes with some bread and focaccia. I highly recommend get this the burratta. I'm not a cheese fan, but this the perfect. The blend of the balsamic(?) glaze and the arugula with the burrata on top of the bread is a combination from heaven. LOL. They sometimes hold weekend specials and I like to try the new options along with these two items. The restaurant is absolutely lovely inside. There is a bar area, and nice dining areas suitable for small and big parties. They also mentioned that they are expanding the yard, which might be ready in the summer. I'm not exactly sure, but I am confident that it will be amazing. Something very special about this place is that the staff and the interior of this restaurant truly cultivate a welcoming and warm atmosphere. The service is memorable as the staff are all really friendly and treat you like family. (Special Shoutout to Mr. Sunny and the pizza chef.) I will mention that the pizza is on the pricier side in comparison to other pizza places, but it's because it is truly a whole other league of pizza. It's so much better! American style pizza and wood fire pizza are extremely different. I recommend going into this restaurant with an open mind if it's your first time trying Italian pizza. Every dollar is worth it, trust me. Your taste buds will thank you. read more
