Pizzeria Piccolo

Santa Cruz de la Palma


Trade is good at this pizzeria on Avenida Marítima. A slice above the pizza norm, these have crisp thin bases and generous toppings. The homemade pastas are al dente delicious, plus there are risottos and lighter bites like focaccias and salads. The building is head-spinningly historic with beams, original tiles and loads of creaky atmosphere, with tables out front for alfresco dining.

Service is efficient and friendly.
