Been a few times to this establishment. Love the pizza. Love the rustic decor. Bonus points for having my favorite beer on tap.
Family run restaurant with a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
Great! Pizzas and large wine selection.
Desserts (Gelato with and chocolate sauce and chocolate mousse) were surprisingly yummy!
Absolutely love this place... intimate rustic feel and mouth watering pizzas!!!! The staff are super friendly and welcoming, felt like I was being welcomed to eat at someones home.
Thoroughly enjoyed our evening celebrating a friends birthday!
The food was amazing! We had the seafood pappardelle and filled calamari gnocchi, which both had beautiful flavours and were cooked well. The only down side was the small portions for the price which did leave you wanting more. We didn’t have any other courses so did feel a bigger portion would have been better.
The ambiance was perfect to celebrate with friends - at no point was I distracted by other tables, the kitchen, noise etc. Our waiter was also great and looked after us well the entire evening!
Focaccia was crispy, and the dough recipe was beyond amazing. I’m definitely coming back to try the pizzas.
Could not find any fault with the Cannelloni or the Filled Calamari. Calamari was fresh, portions generous and freshly made pasta was to die for.
Tiramisu was light yet flavorful. Will definitely be back!
Delicious pizza, it does justice to original Italian neapolitan pizza! Definitely come back, already been there twice now and still enjoying the crust and sauce of the marghareta pizza.
Btw, try to book before hand specially if you go in the evening coz you might end up going back home without a pizza, as they just have certain quantity of dough for the shift. Better book!

The best pizza I’ve had so far. I really suggest you give them a try. We had the margarita and we wanted to try more but the doh was sold out. The photo of the pizza doesn’t look amazing, but I promise it was.
Improve? A margarita needs basil. I really missed that.
The dessert, tiramisu, wasn’t good. They didn’t use espresso or cheese. But simply cream with a coffee liqueur. That was disappointing. I don’t recommend.
The service was friendly and helpful. (Second time the service wasn’t that friendly.)
The environment inside was way too noisy and full so we sat outside. It was way more quiet, and they do have things to block the wind.
Improve? Add more prettiness, like a candle or something. Maybe also a cushion.
Real family Italian cooking. Mom in the kitchen, dad in charge of the pizza oven and their two kids serve the tables. Real hearty cooking, food delicious and the vibe warm and cozy!
Such a nice atmosphere! And very tasty pizza’s and pasta! Always a pleasure to go there! And the staff is very nice and friendly! Definitely our favorite Italian restaurant 👌🏻👍🏻
Took my wife here for a date night. They are on the Entertainer app, which makes it a nice affordable night out.
It wasn’t very busy which was nice. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. The background music was elegant and not too loud - the perfect volume so you can actually hear the other person when they speak.
The decor is cool. There are no physical menu’s. There is a barcode you scan to access the menu on your phone which is quite different.
The service was fine and the food really good. The pizzas are made in a wood fired oven. My wife and I both had the Vesuvio pizza (hers on a gluten free base) and it didn’t disappoint. The base is well cooked and the toppings delicious.
Some of the pizza’s are fairly pricey, but if you have the entertainer it’s totally worth it.
We’ll be back.
Our server was absolutely amazing, he remembered us from our first visit. The new management team was great and humble. Food was delicious, with the Italian touch and not a long waiting period. The bar had a great selection and we can't wait for the new menu.
Really really impressed. Decided to ditch Panarotis in the mall and see what pizza places are nearby, also used Entertainer app to find a spot.
Smallish pizza place with a somewhat rustic feel. We were warmly welcomed and seated.
We ordered 4 pizzas all of which had generous and fresh toppings and the pizza crust is just so good. Also its genuine wood fired pizza which I love. I love that they offer some toppings that you don't get in your regular pizza chains (salmon, wild mushrooms, pancetta etc).
Also ordered a kiwi daiquiri which was made with fresh kiwi... so good.
Finished the meal with some connolo.
This lovely Italian Restaurant is one of our ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE places. Their Pizzas 🍕 & Pastas are Devine!! Vesuvio is a family run business & they go more than the extra mile to make each dining experience as special as possible.
Make sure you make a booking otherwise chances are slim that you will get a table. Some of my friends come just about every Monday for the 'Buy one, get one free' pizza 🍕 special.
Vesuvio is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

It was an mazing experience, service was warm,friendly and welcoming.
I have to say, the food was beyond words..the pizza base was crisp and crunchy yet fluffy while the center was beautifully soft.the flavors were definitely on point from start to finish.. it was mouth watering,and pastas to die for, its definitely worth a try if you have not yet. I would definitely make it a staple.
Delicious with great fresh ingredients. Would definitely come back again.

Went with a group of friends and we each had something different (pizza, pasta, and a panin). Each dish was delicious and the service was great!
Further than that, we also tried their new takeaway branch in Long Street and the quality is equally as great and delicious.
Jay and the entire team were amazing from the first phone call to the time we left. The restaurant was busy and cosy, and the atmosphere was superb. We enjoyed the pizzas and the milkshakes as well, great food. The coffee to finish was also fantastic. All round a very worthwhile visit and a place we will return to again, I have no doubt.
It was also great that the venue was wheelchair friendly for my Mom. That was very helpful.
Thank you to the team for a memorable afternoon out.
We visited Pizza Vesuvio last night for the first time since it is under new ownership. The standard and quality of the food are still impeccable. The portions were much larger than previously. The wine list has been revamped, with additions of some good wines for every taste and budget.
The waiters are well trained and efficient. I have to congratulate the new owners for keeping the ambiance and quality of Pizza Vesuvio, but especially for improving the service standards.
We went back as my boys said it's the best pizza they've had.
Our second experience was even better than the first.
Jay, the owner, is friendly and a great host. The attention to detail is so good. He remembered where we sat the first time we came! We felt like special guests and enjoyed the chat.
The food was just as great, the atmosphere warm and welcoming.
We highly recommend this restaurant as ours was a great night out.
Grazie mille
