LAVA PIZZA

Picked this place on a recent visit to Tenby - was the only nearby place to get a proper sit down pizza, worth the 8 minute drive into Saundersfoot. Car park very nearby at low costs.

Honestly, from looking at the website and menu with the decent prices, I was expecting a 'Frankie and Bennies' style Italian and atmosphere. It's not. It way nice and maybe more on par with a 'Café Rouge' or 'Alchemist' style ambience. You wouldn't look out of place dressed up - I felt bad in a checked shirt and white trainers but I just didn't know.

No need to book. I did check before my visit by calling just in case. Very quiet when I attended, shown to a nice small table at the window. Lovely young woman was waitressing, she was the only one on but there was only 4 tables in use. Very friendly and polite, happy to chat.

Ordered the chicken pizza without the peppers, added caramelised onions and ordered a side of Italian coleslaw. Food didn't take long to arrive at all, came out and then the waitress brought a little tray with oils and a pizza cutter. Whilst being the worst dressed, I also appeared to be the only one using the pizza cutter and eating the pizza with my hands by the slice. Everyone else was knife and forking it - sorry but that's not how to eat pizza! And why provide a slicer if they don't want you to pick it up right 🤣

Food was lovely, you can't beat a good pizza baked in a proper woodfire oven. Good flavours, especially on the Italian coleslaw. Two desserts were offered but I passed due to having picked up a cake earlier at a bakery.

Lovely service, quiet, low light ambience and good food - think 'date night'. They've not been open for long, I hope it takes off for them - definitely recommend.

Popped in for a takeout.. pizza sensational.. great friendly vibe and atmosphere.. will definately dine in the restaurant next time.. Excellent.. 👍

Great pizza and very friendly staff! The service was a bit slow and chaotic at time but we didn't mind at all.
Will definitely be going back the next time we visit Saundersfoot.

The service and food at Lava Pizza is absolutely brilliant. They go out of their way to accommodate customers needs. Top marks to Ellie Holly for excellent customer service.

Lovely pizza infact best we have had for a long time..Will definitely be back next time we are in saundersfoot. Staff Lovely too.

Fantastic service and the pizza was delicious.

We have had a takeaway and a sit down meal here and both have been delicious. This is a real gem in Saundersfoot. The pizza was delicious, the coleslaw and rocket salad both really fresh and tasty, and the garlic mayo fab.All washed down with a nice pint and a good quality wine. The atmosphere was lacking but only because we were the only diners there which is not the fault of the restaurant. Otherwise, it is nicely decorated and warm, and the service was friendly. We will be back. 😁😁

Diamond of a find when you're not in the mood for pub grub.

Popped in looking for somewhere easy after working 12 hours with my team. What a nice surprise to find.

Any Londoners would say it's like Franco manco and cannot complain, great food at a very good price.

I think the overall service has its errors as we were missing a few items but our server was really friendly and good for banter with the situation so no harm done. Recommend and will be back.
