That was my takeaway after eating the most delicious pizza I've ever had in my life at Pizza Pinnochio. Tucked away in an ally in Sanremo, this place is serving up some pizza that can only make you shake your head is disbelief. It's a small mom and pop type of place and they are as a friendly as they come. Even though they didn't speak a lick of English and we didn't speak a lick of Italian, the waitress guided us as best she could through the menu and I ordered a two personal pizzas: one with peppers and one with prosciutto. The pizzas were prepared from start to finish in less than 10 minutes and were very thin crust. The cheese was bubbling and the taste was unreal. It's was the most delicious piece of pizza id ever had. Not to sound cliche, but it was literally melting in my mouth. I enjoyed it so much so that i ordered another pie. If you ever find yourself in Sanremo, this is a hands down must visit restaurant. I promise this will be the best pizza you've ever tasted in your life... Well at least if you're from the US.

The wife and I stayed overnight in Sanremo on our way to Tuscany and dropped into Pizzeria…read morePinocchio based on the good Yelp reviews, and the fact that it was close to our Hotel. We were not disappointed; the pizza was indeed amazing. I ordered the artichoke and grana pizza and was blown away. The wife had the Diavolo and enjoyed it immensely as well. The crust was thin, perfectly cooked, and delicious, with that smoky flavor you only get from a wood-fired oven. The surroundings were standard neighborhood eatery: low-brow and relaxed. No danger of a Michelin star appearing anytime soon. The waitress was quite friendly and the staff seemed capable of conversing in several languages (I heard pretty good English, German, French, and of course, Italian). As a bonus, the restroom, though basic, was clean, fully functional, and well stocked with soap and paper towels. Having eaten in many similar Italian eateries, this was quite a rarity. Check your bill carefully. Whether by accident or design, they charged me for an extra drink that we hadn't ordered. No biggie, but the only blemish on an otherwise pleasant and tasty evening.

The best pizza in San Remo! This place is always packed so they don't need reservations. The pizza…read moreis Naples style, the crust is soft yet charred on the top and the cheese is awesome! They have 54 different pizzas to order from so you can't go wrong! My buddy & I ordered the classic Margherita & also a Buffalo Mozzarella pizza. It was absolutely delicious! The waiter was really nice & spoke in the best English he could which was very accommodating as I know 0 Italian. My Italian friend could've translated but this setup made everything easy. There's room for maybe 40 people so come early or you'll have to queue. They start seating at 7pm and by 8pm it's completely full. Order your pizza fast as it can take 30-45 min once the restaurant gets going. They have plenty of good wine & beer to choose from in addition to some good pastas. Strong recommendation on anything with Buffalo Mozzarella here as it is orgasmic.

Decent pizza that's comparable to southern Italy and Napoli areas…read more The dough is light and chewy and its just the right size. Just enough for one person. The Margherita is the safe bet, but they have many variations so you have a lot to choose from, and still have that authentic feel to it. Restaurant is right next to the beach and there is a stage across the street where they play music throughout the day. Decent prices and a free show. And they have free wi-fi too.
