Pizza may have originated in Naples but that doesn't mean you can't find great Napoli style pizza in other places in Italy. O Sole Mio, located in the Tuscan seaside town of Viareggio, is perfect proof of that.
It's a very relaxed place where the locals go which is always a good sign. It was just around the corner from my AirBnb and came highly recommended by my host. Don't be fooled into thinking it's a tiny spot when you walk in or look through the window because they have an ample enclosed patio that seats more than double what is the front dining room can hold.
The prices are very reasonable for their large pizza (around 7 euros each) and service relatively quick. We opted for a primi of bruschetta with tomatoes and the margherita pizza and a prosciutto crudo pizza topped with balsamic vinegar and walnuts. The prosciutto pizza was hands down the winner...the addition of walnuts really made for an interesting (and delicious) flavor addition.
If you're in a rush-they also do takeout orders which we saw several locals doing while we dined. All in all, I'd definitely come back if I'm ever in town again. read more
