Reviews of Da Mario Wood Fired Pizza

K. V.

We've had a nice dinner but it wasn't anything to remember and make you go back. The place do not sell alcohol and charge £4 if you get your own into the restaurant which was a bit too much just to use two empty glasses. Anyway food was okay and arrived on time and you could see people in the kitchen are very busy and hard working and the ownership really cared about their business. Service was good, a really sweet girl served us. Just adding something that it isn't the restaurant's problem - parking was an issue, we had to go around 3 times until we finally found paid parking spot. There are two shops around where you can not get a nice bottle of wine so you have to get it in advance from a different area. And also the pizza place only works with cash so make sure you have cash to pay your bill.

What a find!!. Probably the best and most authentic wood fired pizza I've had. The capricciosa with extra anchovy, my personal favourite was out of this world. Generous topping, light fluffy base, cooked to perfection, what more could you want? Added to that a coffee tiramisu, velvety and creamy and a lovely balance. Do not bother with the chains, this place beats them hands down.

Best pizza in town by a million miles. Fantastic, helpful and friendly staff. Great prices also. If you have not tried you’re missing out!!!

T. B.

Worth a detour! I'm not normally a pizza fan (especially being gluten free), unless they are exceptional, which this was. The Italia, (with just the right balance of Gorgonzola, plus aubergines) got devoured, completely. I enjoyed every mouthful. The base didn't even taste gluten free. We tried 2 puddings. The BEST Tirramasu EVER.

Z. F. (.

Can't fault it! We were going to go to Pizza Hut but thought we'd support a local restaurant and we're so glad we did! Thank you!

B. A. o. L.

Very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and passionate owner, oh, and the food was a downright gorgeous taste-explosion in my mouth-hole.........my odd literary quirks aside; Da Mario's will serve you GENUINELY GOOD ITALIAN FOOD. Thank you Sam.

K. J.

Chose this restaurant as it was close to our hotel, and what a great choice. Possibly the best pizza I've ever had, and my wife said the same about hers. Excellent service too. Will definitely come back next time in Bournemouth.

M. S.

Lovely time, great staff and food.... Amazing! Thank you to all that made it so special! Recommend to anyone, there's no pizza like Da Mario pizza!!!

C.

Been going to this place for years and was surprised to find out that it has new owners. I've read reviews about the new business for the last year and every one agrees the pizzas are great I think the pizzas are great. But in the past I enjoyed the atmosphere, the greeting, the true authentic Italian enthusiasm that Da Marios was famous for. But on my recent visit I was disappointed. Pizza great, staff not great. Based on my experience, this place is just like any other pizza restaurant in any town. Oh one other thing, the place needs a lick of paint.

M. C.

The best Italian authentic pizza you will find in the UK for sure. I've eaten in some of the best pizzerias in the world and this place matches them for authenticity and taste.

V. T.

I am a pizza lover, Da Mario best pizza ever eaten

C. H.

This place serve the best pizzas in town. Classic Neapolitan style with sourdough crust. The chef Sam made us a few delicious pizzas and Lela prepared some starters that were also great. Quality for a bargain with great service

S. G.

Amazing pizza 👌

P. D.

Best pizza we've found in this country. Also staff are super friendly, even going to the shop over the road to buy a colouring book to keep my daughter happy. Couldn't recommend Da Mario too much if you like your pizza thin and crispy with an amazing crust.

C. F.

Great place, lovely atmosphere and most importantly fantastic pizza!

R. F.

We have been here with my girlfriend during our holiday and i have to say that's the best pizza we have ate, the waiter was very nice and polite and not expensive at all. I would suggest this place for everyone.

S. V.

I would like to say that this is the real Italian pizza!!! I'm amazed how delicious it was. Great customer service, fast service, cosy atmosphere. Great job guys, keep going! Cannot wait for my next pizza 🍕

A. D.

Nice place with a good variety of pizzas choices.The pizzas were delicious, and a good size too. Friendly staff and prompt service.

P. B.

Best pizza I have ever tasted.

L. M.

Easily the best authentic pizzeria in Dorset, Da Mario will delight your taste buds with their incredibly delicious pizzas. Using techniques and ingredients from Italy, these pizzas satisfy on ever visit. The price is very reasonable for what you get, and additional toppings are charged fairly. It's a cash-only restaurant but don't let that put you off - there's a cash point just around the corner. It's also a Bring-Your-Own-Booze establishment with a fair corking charge for bringing in your own alcohol, which again can be purchased just round the corner if needed. It's quite a small, but cosy restaurant, so bookings are essential on Fridays and weekends. I've always been made to feel welcome and thoroughly enjoy every visit here. You won't be disappointed.

R. B.

A perfect gem in Bournemouth. The pizzas tasted amazing and on par with many authentic pizzerias I have tasted in London. The service was super friendly and well priced. Sam was really helpful, friendly and served with positivity. I would definitely come back.

D. M.

Pizza with heart and pizza full of true taste created by a wood fired oven. Forget the pizza chains and help your local authentic and extremely passionate businesses who go the extra mile to offer truly authentic flavours. The pizza is amazing and so it the service.

D. S.

Came down on a Saturday evening as a family group of 7. We got a 7pm table at short notice and they didn’t rush us at all, having booked our table for 2 hours. The food was amazing. Their pizza dough is absolutely heavenly and their desserts were spot on. This is a bring your own bottle venue for alcohol and they charge a small amount for corkage, but it’s still cheaper than normal restaurant prices. Staff were really nice as well. We’ll definitely be back and I’d recommend it, no question at all 😁

C. N.

Such a great quality pizza. Awesome dough Delicious Sauce Very friendly staff Can't wait to come back ☺️

D. M.

Still great pizza with the new owners. Great pizza dough, and love that its unlicensed. Glad to see they haven't changed the successful format. Ignore the haters... Yes we loved the old owners but the food is still great so give these guys a chance! It's as good as ever

W. B.

A decent Napoli style pizzeria with friendly service. The bases were excellent and mozerella good quality. My only gripe was the toppings were a little bland. For example the gorgonzola was barely noticeable on my pizza and I found myself wanting some salt for the slightly underseasoned sauce.

J. F.

The pizzas are delicious! We loved our visit here last night.

L. R.

Best pizza in all the Dorset I would say! And even better that many other Italian restaurant in all south England... I'm not exaggerating

b. w.

Been to Da Mario twice now and can confidentially say that this is the best pizza you'll ever get in the south! Closest I've ever had to proper Naples pizza. The waiting staff are ever so sweet, and the prices are incredibly low! 5/5

D. M.

The pizza was caught up (burnt) in places which I am really not a fan of. They were also 10 minutes late for collection which again while not ideal, could be worse. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.

J. B.

Fantastic new Owner, Samuel, has kept the quality of exceptional pizza's and raised it to another level by adding his own special touch. I had a superb takeaway pizza tonight. Thanks heaps Samuel from Julie xx

J. A.

Good food but don't take card payments

K. R.

Easily the best pizza we ate in Bournemouth area. You can say that you don’t like the interior, or „cash only” policy- but if you are looking for a great pizza- look no further. Definitely coming back!

s. m.

Great pizzas, great atmosphere, no alcohol licence so bring your own drinks, charge for corkage and they only accept cash.

M. H.

The best pizza I ever had in my life. Love and passion in every inch 🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍 Warm and welcoming atmosphere. Thanks guys!!! ❤️

N. A.

As an Italian who has spent his whole life in and around the food service and restaurant industry, it is my belief that this is one of the very best pizzas anywhere in the UK. You can tell that the dough has been raised for at least 48 hours (if not more), as the base comes out light, crispy and doesn't leave you feeling remotely bloated. 2 12" pizzas in one sitting would not be a push. The quality of the ingredients is magnificent, the service friendly, and the prices competitive. A fine representation of the south of Italy in the UK. 5*

D. D. M.

The best pizza in Bournemouth. We used to come here back when it was a small takeaway and have watched it expand. The atmosphere is lovely, the staff are so friendly and I quite like the fact that you can bring your own drink, it adds a nice touch. I would recommend to anyone!

G. B.

Lovely food, great atmosphere in a little corner of Italy

J. c.

Just the best! I am pizzaiolo trust me!

F. C.

Superb Italian pizza! Delicious food at a good price. Service with a very welcoming smile. The perfect finnish to a great day. Helpful team response to questions you may have. Consistent quality of food and service.

P. T.

Not many smiles to be had from the staff. The pizzas are very good. Rather a loud place maybe something to do with acoustics. BYO with corkage. Nice Italian desserts

p. a.

the best restaurant in Bournemouth, the best food, excellent service and the best prices!

D. s.

I've come here multiple times with my parents and the food only gets better with each visit! Great food, great service and great staff. Cannot wait for my next pizza here

C. B.

Great wood-fired pizzas at this local restaurant just round the corner from the Premier Inn. No licence but reasonable corkage of £3 allows purchase of wine from co-op next door and they provide glasses. Friendly service makes it a winner.

G. M.

Amazingly tasty pizza with homemade tiramisu. Can’t believe how good this was! Modern Italian, plenty of young staff and management

S. B.

Best pizza in town. Authentic, high quality, Italian pizza. Lovely friendly staff. Have only had takeaway but restaurant always has a great atmosphere when I pop in to collect pizza, hoping to dine in soon.

M. P.

I like so much !!!! The best pizza Bournemouth

N.

Truly delicious pizza!! The atmosphere is warm and laid back. Visiting Bournemouth for a week, have had dinner twice here and we are welcomed as if we were life-long friends! Love it!

D. D.

I've been going here for years and it's always been the best pizza in town! Just like you get in Italy but a lot nearer :) highly recommended if you're looking for the real deal and the staff are great.

K. F.

One of the best pizzas I've ever tasted. Seriously. The quality here is out of this world. My girlfriend is from Napoli, and she was blown away too. Gobsmacked

D. J.

I feel that this place has been over rated. On the basis of the 5 star reviews, I went there with my partner to enjoy the best ever pizza, but felt like we made a mistake. If you go as a couple, expect to be squeezed into the chilly corner areas where room to move is very limited, and the door is right over your shoulder. On a chilly November night it soon got tiring having to stop eating and reach over to shut the door properly after each person came or went. The menu was a simple black and white photo copy, which felt like an afterthought. There is no alcohol licence on the premises, so you can either bring your own and pay a corking fee, or enjoy a can of coke poured into a glass. The pizza itself wasn't terrible, but certainly not worthy of the 5 stars these reviews indicate. Over all, it's got room to improve to be worthy of 5 stars, and 3 stars is a more realistic expectation.

A. V.

I have been a customer for years on and off, easily the best pizza in the South for me, the family are awesome, lots of character! I was just showing some colleagues who will be coming to bmth and noticed the idiot who wrote the one star review - clearly the guy does not realise that licenced restaurants charge a premium for alcohol - has he never heard of corkage fool? A great set up, carry on as you are :)

P.

Have always visited this restaurant on our trips to Bournemouth and got to know the last owners very well, so we were a little disappointed to see they had left. Although the food we had was as good as it always was, the service and general atmosphere of the place was not. On previous occasions, the restaurant would be heaving. On this occasion, only 4 tables including ours, were being used and one person came in for a takeaway. I wish the new people lots of luck with their venture and hope they appreciate that it takes more than good food to fill a restaurant!

D. C.

Without a doubt the best pizza in Bournemouth, if not the country! Delicious, authentic ingredients and a warm, friendly atmosphere. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

M. B.

Small family run woodfired pizza restaurant a short walk from Bournemouth centre and Westcliff hotels. Fabulous food, personal service and great atmosphere. Love it!

S. G.

The BEST pizza I have ever had. I recently visited the restaurant having spotted it whilst passing by. The restaurant is small and casual but full of character. The first thing you'll notice entering the restaurant is the big clay wood fired pizza oven, it's great to see your pizza go from prep to oven to table. I had the meatballs as a starter and they were delicious served in a tomato sauce. This was followed by a custom pizza with toppings of nduja, chicken, ham and fetta. The pizza was hot, fresh and crisp from the oven. Delicious. I was even temped by the desserts, freshly made profiteroles with rich chocolate sauce. Fantastic. Great service, I can't say for certain but I definitely got the impression it was a traditional Italian family pizzeria. Definitely visit if you're in the area. — A few things of note, it can get quite busy, they only have a few tables and the restaurant is popular for takeaway and delivery. The restaurant does not have a licence to sell alcohol, but you are able to bring your own alcohol provided you pay a small corkage charge. The restaurant is also cash only.

L. K.

A little gem tucked in Queens Road, Bournemouth. There is street parking or opposite the Co-op there are more spaces. This Pizza Restaurant is the friendliest place on earth. Small but inviting and not open all the time and they only take cash. Also they don't serve any alcohol but charge corkage of you take your own. You must book and you won't be disappointed. Wood-fired delicious pizzas and a few specials on the board. All the desserts are homemade and take it from me absolutely mouthwatering. I've had their profiteroles and apple pie but they are not always available. They also do Tiramasu. Wooden tables and chairs. Squashed together but cosy and inviting.

H. G.

Always an absolute pleasure, been going there since the Italian owners and now with new and improved owners. If u like pizza don’t waste ur time with anywhere else....friendly and comfortable atmosphere that anyone will enjoy!!!

L. C.

I've been coming here since the day they opened, I've never had a bad meal and only ever been made to feel welcome. Best pizza in Bournemouth and the warmest authentic people. Not one to be missed!

a.

There are two reasons why we get pizza from them weekly: The food is absolutely awesome and it is matched by an amazing customer service. We love da mario. Edit. 20220902 update. Always the best.

s. j.

Absolutely delicious 😋 one of the best pizza's we have eaten and fantastic starter too, lovely people too. Worth a visit.

R. H.

To be honest, I've never eaten in the actual restaurant, but ordered many a takeaway and it's consistently prime quality.

P. S.

An amazing home made pizza with friendly staff. I was leaving satisfied and happy that I came over there. This place is usually very busy, it is advised to book in advance. Also the portions are really good, I was full and I can eat a lot!

A. K.

Best pizza place in Bournemouth - dough is fluffy and perfectly cooked in wood overn. Best part is you can bring your own alcohol for just a small price - white profiteroles are good too - the lady was super nice - amazing service - they quickly found us a place to sit even if it was full: waited just 10min

J. W. A.

If you want wood fired pizza, Da Mario is the place to get it! Best pizza in Bournemouth!

S. M. R.

You want great authentic wood fired pizzas? Then look no further. You want to eat in a nice Italian family run pizzeria? You just found it. Want to bring your own alcohol and pay corkage of £5? Then take a seat (if you can find one).

K. O.

Me and my family absolutely loved pizza here. Staff is incredible!! Highly recommend to support a small restaurant rather than go for a chain.

C. R.

We ordered pizza online and it was amazing. Mine had extra anchovies and it had a lot! :) I was very happy. It also arrived very quickly and the delivery man was very nice. Thank you 💗

F. C.

I went couple of time to have pizza, the first two time they run out the smoked cheese but the pizza was delightful and the last time I went, it was disappointed as the pizza was burnt and had only 2 slices of bacon + the smoked cheese wasn't smoked. Guess it's a hard time for everybody, but the details are incredibly important.

J. B.

I would like to thank the team at Da Mario for a lovely evening celebrating a friends birthday. The service was fantastic, the team went above and Beyond. I haven't even mentioned the food yet and again that was wonderful, really fresh and authentic. I look forward to my next visit.

R. B.

Good pizza. Nice sour dough base. The toppings are a bit of a let down as the place has an artisanal feel but lacks the unusual ingredients to reflect that. Price is ok. Would like to see it being more competitive with Franco Manca.

R. (. G. L.

Authentic, delicious, very reasonably priced pizza. The best pizza I have ever had in fact (on each of the 6 occasions I've been I've said the exact same thing as well). Great stuff.

K. S.

This restaurant send me back to Italy with a lovely atmosphere, drinks, and amazing service provided by the whole damario family, specially sid was wonderful to us.

A. A.

Finally real Italian pizza in Bournemouth! Forget all take-aways and order from here. If you have not tried Italian pizza, this will blow you away! Lovely place. It is a bit more expensive than the usual pizzas you get but the usual pizzas are made with cheap ingredients and are not fresh (they are usually pre-baked) and also pizzas are not supposed to be cheap take away food (ew, pizza hut?).... Lovely lovely! Thanks for being here!!!

E. K.

Definitely the best pizza I have ever had in Bournemouth. The place was super busy. I haven’t seen it like that before. But it was worth to wait a bit longer 😉

M. R.

Excellent pizza; hence, it is rammed. Worth the wait.

a. m.

1st time I have been in walked past it a few times after parking coach on coach park then walking to hotel. Had a pizza and it was so yummy. Not had a wood fired pizza in years and it adds alot of flavour to your pizza

J. L.

Absolutely sublime pizzas! Handmade from scratch and using the freshest ingredients. I watched them make it and omg! So good 🤤 I got a pizza Diavola (pepperoni, jalapeños and buffalo mozzarella) was absolutely incredible! Would definitely recommend 👌

a. s.

Great and friendly service, fantastic family run business, feels like home whenever we eat at da mario's amazing home cooked food best pizza in Bournemouth very tasty and satisfying. We never get tired of visiting our our favourite pizzeria.

M.

Delicious pizza! Cheaper if call them directly and pick up then order through deliveroo or just eat

M. B.

Absolutely brilliant all round. If I hadn't have known better I would have thought I was sitting in a small family run pizzeria in Italy itself. Wonderful and would definitely recommend - even though I didn't get what I was expecting in my order

E. E.

Absolutely amazing pizza, friendly and super kind stuff. Highly recommend

B. A.

The best Italian restaurant in Bournemouth the pizza there is so amazing ,and the staff so kind

F. A.

Most excellent. Superlative garlic bread and a delicious pollo pizza, all served with a smile in a really nice atmosphere. Looking forward to the forthcoming lunches, which sound exciting. Thank you!

B. P.

Friendly staff and beautiful authentic pizza. Also you can bring your own booze Fantastic! The only down side is the place is too small for the number of people that want to go.

H. C.

I have ordered from Da Mario number of times now in last 3 months and their quality , taste , freshness is always consistent . They do best Pizza in Bournemouth, whoever makes this Pizzas very talented chef. Well done to the whole team.

L. F.

Excelent pizza! Best of bournemouth

c. w.

Ordered 10 pizzas for a birthday takeaway.. always quick at delivering the best quality hot fresh pizzas.thank you. Great little pizza restaurant lovely atmosphere

R. T.

Laid back, intimate, BYOB. The people who run and work at this place are so warm and attentive and this makes for such a welcoming atmosphere! The food sticks to what all good Italians restaurants do best with great effect; simple, well cooked, using quality ingredients. I have never given 100% for ANYTHING before but these guys absolutely deserve it. Thankyou so much Di Mario for a wonderful evening and meal.

J.

Now this place got a bit bigger so means there is more tables to sit around 😉. And of course variety of fresh and tasty pizza's. There is also a nice freshly made Italian deserts. Never been disappointed. 👌🍕🍷

e. n.

Brilliant wood fired pizzas best in Bournemouth. Service is excellent a family atmosphere. You won't regret your visit.

T. B.

Great food, exceptional service, nice restaurant albeit a little cramped, good prices

A. R. B.

Pure love!!!

H. R.

Would highly recommend this pizza restaurant. Run by husband and wife, it is very friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. They offer a half calzone half pizza (the first time I’ve ever heard of this) which is the answer to all of life’s pizza problems!

A. M.

Absolutely without a doubt the best pizza on the south coast. If you're after authentic Italian flavour then this is the place to go. Top marks.

M. K.

The best pizza in town and good value for money. I know this place for many years now and keep coming back :). The standard & quality of the food is consistent.

C. L.

Absolutely lovely pizza, tastes fresh and authentic. Good selection of other Italian foods too! Very friendly staff and a quaint atmospheric restaurant. A wonderful gem, would recommend!

K. M.

Can honestly say the best pizza ever ....highly recommended you won't be disappointed....

J. J.

Amazing Pizza, had one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. And came to table asking if anything could be added.... garlic mayo sauce amazing! 😻

D. P.

By far the best Pizza I've tasted in Dorset and probably go as far to say in the UK!

V. S.

I had the half Calzone and half Margherita... It is still the best Pizza I ever had in my life. Next week we drive all the way down from London, just for the Pizza. Amazing!!

R. R.

Best pizza in Bournemouth 🙌🏼 the place is tiny and usually crowded, so it's best to book in advance. They don't sell alcohol but there's an off license just opposite so you can BYOB.

Y. T.

Stooped in again for pizza. The owner, who also made the pizzas welcomed us warmly. We never fail to come here when we visit. What a yummy treat ❤️

S. W.

Delicious pizzas and great service. BOYB so very good for a very reasonably priced meal - would highly recommend!

D. B.

I would put my review as a 2 due to how slow the general service is and lack of card machine, but the pizza here is just that good I will put up with the former for the quality. I would choose this over domino's or papa John's any day of the week. Please just get a card machine! 🙏

G. R.

Quite simply the best pizza for miles. Hand made using the freshest of ingredients and baked in their traditional wood fired oven. Unbeatable. 😊🍕🏅🖒

H.

Family holiday, evening dining with great food and super friendly staff. The whole family really enjoyed the atmosphere, would definitely recommend it.

R. V.

Great place, good atmosphere the food was amazing one of the best woodfired pizzas I had in the UK ever.

M. B.

Pizza is great,the best in the city...But you can’t make a customer waiting 1 hour for a couple of pizza. Service needs speeding up.

E. B.

Easily the best pizza I've ever eaten. Forget your dreadful salty, greasy, cardboardy Pizza Hut, Pizza Express & Domino's and go straight to Da Mario's! It's much a million miles nicer and much cheaper too!

A. B.

Excellent service came with my family a few days ago and really enjoyed my time there, Its the best pizza I have ever had!

B. C.

I wish I had taken photos, but the pizza was too delicious! Quite possibly the best pizza I have ever had in the UK. I’m part Neapolitan, and I have to say, the pizza here tastes like the pizza in Naples! Well done guys!

B. R.

Very lucky at the moment as there are a couple of places in Bournemouth that do excellent pizza, but this is #1, Best pizza in Bournemouth

D. B.

Best pizza in Bournemouth for sure. You might need to book if you plan to eat in though. It's tiny, but worth it.

J. P.

amazing food... will definitely be coming back for pizza next weekend. thanks you guys, smashing it

M. S.

The atmosphere and family warmth is as awesome as there Wood fired pizza. The best deserts from scratch too... Highly recommend this spot.

a. k.

Very very very good pizza, we've tried just about everywhere in Bournemouth and agreed that it's the best!👌

E. S.

Loved the atmosphere. Staff are lovely, pizza is best in the South. Tiramisu for pudding is recommend. Good price

J. D.

Best pizzas in Dorset , staff great but the real winner is the pizzas , absolutely lovely, can't get better

T. G.

We had an excellent evening meal,great service and the food is top notch. 10 out of ten.

L. C.

Incredible been going to years and a must visit

k. w.

Fabulous Sunday lunch here yesterday - our first time but will definitely come again - great quirky place, food was lovely - fresh and piping hot - delicious home cooked Sunday roast.

R. A.

Delicious flavours and beautiful Pizza and Calzone presentations, however still I'm disappointed because the sauce I've ordered was missing. This was my first order from Da Mario (lucky me 🤨) on Deliveroo app, but I'm getting really annoyed with the missing items in my almost every order from other places too. Restaurants and Delivery Businesses need to care more, because refunds don't change the frustration of a incomplete meal. You better do it better, people!!!

A. B.

Best pizza We’ve had yet! Incredible deserts! Beautiful food highly recommend!

D. P.

Pizzas were delicious

A. A.

Great authentic pizza, reasonably priced, friendly staff. Loved it :-)

A. G.

Had an amazing pizza this evening, great with the children.

L. C.

Amazing pizza and a lovely little restaurant with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Come prepared though - they only take cash and there's no licence so it's BYO.

B. S.

Excellent pizza...just like in Napoli...Friendly staff

O.

Probably one of the best pizza in Bournemouth. The place could do with a bit of paint but their food is totally worth it.

N. M.

One of the greatest pizzas in town, the dough is thin, crispy and bursting with flavour. Would definitely recommend this pizzeria 😀

A. H.

Very nice pizza, freshly cooked in an authentic wood oven.

S. S.

Best pizza I have had outside Italy. Friendly welcoming staff and awesome food

M. M.

The atmosphere in this restaurant is amazing, very welcoming and friendly. The pizzas are marvelous and the desserts very authentic Italian.

G. W.

Exceptional customer service. Dropped in on Saturday night with my 2 yr old and the staff couldn't have done more. Great food and a lovely, friendly atmosphere.

J. G.

Went there with friends . We all had different pizzas and all of us enjoyed them . We all gave them 5 star's . It's a must

S. M.

The best pizza and tiramisu I have ever eaten. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

T. W.

Great pizza, really good value, nice staff!

H. A.

Came because of the restaurant rating and recommendations by friends . I ordered a margarita pizza and frankly its was slightly burned and did not taste as expected

P. K.

First time here, and one of the best pizzas we have had. The desserts are very good to.

D. T.

Best pizza I had in the UK. And you MUST try the white chocolate profiteroles! 💛

a.

Go here so much. Pizza is the best in Bournemouth and have really nice staff keep up the good work :)

L. C.

Really good Italian pizza and atmosphere! Worth trying, you'd love it!

K. S.

Top guy, amazing customer service, delicious food.. Yummy 😋 👏👏

R. C.

Wood fired pizza was tasty enough, no credit card, so had to make an impromptu journey to the ATM. Also £4 for corkcage for a bottle of wine seems pretty steep. The only naturally vegan pizza on the menu is a mariniara, ie nothing but tomato, so it's quite hard work to order a vegan pizza if you want decent value and a variety of ingredients. I wish they had a basic vegana pizza option. £2.50 to substitute vegan cheese is way too steep, I can buy an entire block of vegan cheese for that, the markup is extortionate.

T. K. T.

great place for pizza fast and buzzing busy no room to social distance?

D. F.

Good quality, friendly. Cafe atmosphere. Bring your own wine etc. Been many times. Always good.

Enjoying life in Brittany but the local pizza is nowhere near your hospitality. God bless. Fr Peter

Great little pizzeria but don't be late or you'll loose your table!

D. C.

This pizza restaurant is cosy, welcoming, and quite minimalist in style, and when I visited the menus were photocopied sheets of paper. However the modest appearance belies the quality of the food, which is phenomenal. The staff were very friendly, attentive and efficient, and my family ordered a couple of starters and pizzas. I had smoked burrata which tasted as amazing as it looked (please see photos), followed by a vesuvio pizza (half-folded), a style I hadn’t tried before. This too was absolutely delicious. Everything my family ordered was great too. The bill was extremely reasonable given the quality of the food. As a bonus, Da Mario is next door to the superb All Hail Ale micropub, where I went for my Italian dessert (an affogato beer!) Apparently there's a mutual relationship where you can bring beer from the micropub to Da Mario’s (since the restaurant is BYO), and you can also eat Da Mario pizzas in All Hail Ale! I’ll definitely head to this corner of Westbourne next time I’m in the area!

F. M. F.

I have previously ordered for takeaway several times and I was delighted with the pizzas so I booked a table for my partner's birthday. We loved the pizzas and the place. Only downside was that we arrived there on time to be told that our tablet was occupied and the owner asked us to have some drinks or go for a walk. More clients were in the same situation that day. I must admit they were a really busy. We ended up seated at 8:30pm after going for a walk 25'. Take cash with you as they do not take card payments.

L. H.

Without a doubt the best Pizza in Dorset if not the whole of the UK. Eat in and enjoy the atmosphere.

M. B.

So I’m visiting Bournemouth for a wedding. I see this place on Google and the pictures look good. There’s one or two reviews that let it down but most seem really positive. I’m from London, Italian family so never hold out much hope for great pizza outside the capital. I phone and the place is closed but says leave a message about reservation so I do and they phone back an hour later telling me that’s fine and they can fit a table of three in. When we get there, there’s a blast of beautiful smells and the sights and sounds make you feel like you’re in a Roman or Neapolitan pizzeria, not a short walk from Bournemouth beach. We order the antipasti to start, and it’s perfect. The ideal amount of balsamic, the range of meats, the tang of the vegetables. Then all three of us order different pizzas, and they’re all baked to perfection. The cook even pops out to make sure everything is ok. The waitress was very attentive even though it was busy and the waiter was fun and had a laugh with us. Desserts were traditional Italian - the canole were beautifully served and creamy perfection. The whole place was spotlessly clean and everyone sounded like they were having a great time. The place doesn’t have a licence, but there’s two small shops that serve alcohol within a few metres and you can bring it in. They only take cash but that’s not a problem either with a cash point round the corner. The whole meal for three worked out at less than £20 per head for three courses (plus a few pounds at the co-op for alcohol). An amazing find and I will definitely come back the next time I’m in the area. Grazie mille Da Mario!

What a little GEM 💎 , Have to say the best pizza i have ever eaten, even my 7 year old son admitted too and demolished his before myself. I choose to have - Artichoke stone baked, fresh Parma Ham and a mozzarella burrato. The size was quite enough perfect in fact, loving the take your own drinks, its cash only bear in mind. Staff we're very attentive and very friendly we decided to rock up early and they squeezed us in. Do book as its a small venue to avoid disappointment. This truly is a must for the pizza lover. BIG thanks again guy's smashing pizza, worth the trip down from Birmingham. Hopefully here to stay for years to come, will definitely be visiting again. Bellissimo

A. L. E. W. C.

Been here with all the team mates and thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service ! Will come back soon 👌🏻

S. H.

Five star pizza. Three star service. I couldn't find a menu online so called up. I choose some toppings on the hoof. I collected it and when I got home my nduja pizza was missing the nduja. Menu on the website please..

V. D.

Da Mario is a cosy and welcoming no-frills pizza place. Powered by Massimo, a real pizzaiolo from Naples, it’s got a decent menu with a few options for extra toppings and basic antipasti and dessert. The pizza was excellent, light and crunchy. Ingredients all top quality. Could have been less burnt on the sides and underneath but was barely noticeable as didn’t affect the flavour. 5 stars as although they’re not licensed to sell alcohol they have a BYOB policy with a reasonable £3 corkage fee per bottle. Great find and will come again when we visit Bournemouth.

ب. ا.

The food was excellent and anna and maria’s service was perfect, really polite and kind people!

L. W.

Went for dinner with friends who live locally. 4 adults and 5 children. It was lovely! Extra tasty handmade pizzas with lovely fresh topping. Made so welcome and enjoyed out time there. Thank you.

G. T.

Good pizza, friendly staff and excellent espresso! You have to bring your own wine though.

M. M.

Da Mario was a sweet and charming place that I so happen to randomly find online yesterday as I was trying to find a place for dinner to celebrate our 2nd anniversary with my partner as we were in town for the weekend. The reviews already looked great for the quality of food but let me say that the customer service truly exceeded my expectations. Everyone was extremely attentive from the moment we stepped in the restaurant till the moment we stepped out. The pizzas were absolutely delicious with a nice thin and light crust. But one very important thing to do is.... make sure you order their "Homemade Garlic and Herbs Dip" to accompany your pizza because that just put everything to another level!! I was lucky to meet the owner Sam who you could tell was making sure that every guests that stepped through his doors were met with a big smile and a great welcome. I will be sure to return to this lovely place on my next trip to Bournemouth!

Z. A.

Small familiar place. The best pizzas in the city !!! Really wood fired pizza !!! Good prices. They don't sell alcohol, but let you take with you your own wine.You need to booking a table. Only cash, but there is an ATM at 20m. There is a car park in 50m.

M. D.

We celebrated a birthday with a big table of us and had the most fantastic meal including a delicious tiramisu birthday cake. Everyone said it’s the best pizza they had ever had and will all be coming back soon. Thank you for looking after us so well, the birthday boy loved it!!

B.

Absolutely love this place, first time here, there was 16 of us for my daughters leaving do, pizzas were awesome, service was fantastic. I will definitely go back 😁

D. G.

I visited Da Mario Wood Fired Pizza on Wednesday 16 March 2022 in the early evening, a weekday during term time. I was with one other person. This was my first visit. I used Google Maps to find the restaurant, which was easy and led me straight to the right place. The restaurant comprises of one medium sized main dining area with a number of tables with full table service. The team were incredibly friendly and welcoming and I had no issues - we got everything we expected in good time and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I enjoyed a garlic bread with cheese for my starter and a Hawaiian pizza for my main course. The food arrived hot, was well presented and tasted really good. There was a good selection of food and I found something that appealed to me easily. The food was very good value for money, I paid around £20 for two courses and drinks. The restaurant doesn't have an alcohol licence so it's bring your own - no additional charges. Be aware it's cash only. Overall I really enjoyed my visit and would definitely come and visit again.

S. R.

Great little Pizza place I would say the best in Bournemouth. Really friendly staff and I will keep going back

J. J.

Oh my word… moved to Bmouth 9 months ago from London and have been moaning about the lack of tasty food…. WELL HELLO THERE Damario!!! Pizza and salad Packed with flavour, dreamiest tiramisu and the kindest, most friendly owner and staff!! Will be back for sure!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

R. G.

Best pizza this side of Sorrento. Good quality ingredients prepared with love and care. Will definitely go again. Soon.

K. V.

without doubt the best pizza! Perfect every time; desserts are also amazing and great customer service 100% recommended

J. O.

Cozy and warm full people. Great pizza and calzone. A must go place

T. T.

Sam and his team took great care of us. Delicious starters, pizzas and desserts at great value too.

V. B.

The last time I will go there. Soggy pizza, no cheese and the smallest portion of tiramisu I have ever been served up.

S. I.

The restaurant is great! They accommodated us during a busy time when all restaurants were fully booked for the evening. The stuff is amazing, Sam especially went above and beyond to make us fill great…..and the food..😋😋 was amazing! Highly recommended to anyone! 💯% Italian food We’ve loved it! Definitely coming back when in Bournemouth

P. A. B.

I was going through my recent reviews and realised i didn't review the best pizza in Bournemouth! I have been ordering from them a while since i moved to this town, but got the chance to see the place with a friend visiting me about a month ago. This was a real delight, a tiny gem hidden from the town centre owned by caring owners. Food was great, service amazing. Decor is simple, as if you actually were in a pizza place in Italy rather than an Italian restaurant in England. It's the kind of place you don't want to review because you want to keep it for yourself, but then again they deserve the publicity. I think id be there twice a week easily if I didn't move away from their location.

C. B.

Superb pizza and fantastic customer service. Visited Da Mario's with my young family and they couldn't have been more accommodating. The food was amazing and our two children wolfed down their pizza and ice cream. Would certainly recommend.

m. r.

Incredible pizza and meatballs. A must try if you are in the area. Great customer service.

B. T.

All the way from Birmingham, spotted this amazing opportunity to have Italian pizza. Staff was absolutely nice, very welcoming, and the food was outstanding. Eat in, take aways are also found in Uber eats if you're ever looking for Italian style in Bournemouth, this is the place!!

C. B.

One of the best pizza I've ever tried.

A. N.

Really tastey pizzas at reasonable prices served by friendly staff.

L. F.

Decent pizza and brilliant smiley customer service makes this a place to recommend. We had a booking which was great as they were busy on a monday evening...we were in the corner but they moved us to a bigger table so that we could sit a bit more comfier which we really appreciated...nothing was too much hassle for them. We enjoyed the pizza and desserts...the service made the night, personal and attentive the whole night..thanks guys!

C. J.

I dont normally write reviews, but this one is well deserved! I ordered from Da Mario's through Deliveroo and my pizza arrived missing the two extra toppings I'd asked for. We phoned them directly and spoke to the owner. He was very genuine, polite and apologetic. He was more than willing to help resolve the issue by offering to give me the pizza for free the next time we order through them which I thought was very kind of him - even better than a discount! I collected the pizza from the restaurant, met the owner in person and he was very personable, friendly and had great customer care. Mine and my partners pizzas have all been so delicious and I don't think we could go anywhere else now - not having a Dominos ever again now that we have found this place! Would 100% recommend.

S. Q.

Perfect take away Pizza late at night (shortly before they shut at 10)

V. L.

This place is a hidden gem in Bournemouth. Amazing pizzas and staff is super hardworking. If you have to wait for a pizza, it’s because they are selling so much. And that can only be a good sign!

S. G.

Amazing and delicious food and what great service the pudding was also delicious

C. D.

Ordered a lovely take away vegan pizza from here. Staff were lovely on the phone and in person, seems a nice family run business. Probably one of the best pizzas I have ever had! Shame you are so far from me!! Thank you

M. K.

The food was great, the service was really nice and chatty. I’d definitely come back here and I can recommend it to anyone.

C. R.

Bought a cheese garlic bread from these guys and it was gorgeous not cheap but it tasted stunning. We were visiting All Hail Ale, the pub next door who have a copy of the restaurant menu on the bar. After seeing another patron receive his order, which smelt gorgeous (great marketing by the way)and was delivered by the youngest delivery person ever (as the owner brought his new baby with him when he dropped off the pizza) we decided to grab a snack. The pizza bread was freshly cooked and really hot when it arrived. Just one small thing, the restaurant only takes cash but there's a Co-Op free cash point literally next door so not a problem for us.

D.

Tye best pizza I have ever tried in Bournemouth.

G. B.

I really enjoyed the pizza in this authentic Italian pizzeria. I tried the aliche pizza called Napoli. Very good! Friendly service. Payment by cash only. Do not sell alcoholic beverages. Reasonable prices.

E. K.

Best pizza in Bournemouth and Poole. Massive choice and all served by friendly and knowledgeable staff. I'm a local and use it often.

D. H.

We needed somewhere for our evening meal whilst visiting Bournemouth for the day. We took a punt on Da Marios and boy are we glad we did! The food was wonderful. The service was absolutely spot on and nothing was too much trouble. I had brushetta with mozzarella to start followed by a very yummy pizza. My wife had lasagne and she declared it was the BEST lasagne she has ever had and I can assure you she’s had more than her share! Thank you for the fabulous hospitality, amazing food and making our day trip to Bournemouth an even more memorable experience.

C. J.

Great Pizza’s but customer service not the best as so busy!

a. l.

Good quality food, but trying to gwt something delivered to town centre... 1 hour 28 minutes is just to much

H. R.

These are the best pizza makers in Bournemouth period! i have tasted everyone and Da Mario just blows them all out of the water on produce and texture, flavor, technique and on being Authentic i can go on you cant beat them here in Bournemouth or Dorset for that matter.Keep the good work up and i will try to make like this at home lol in my dreams hahaha

P. G.

Wanted a takeaway pizza staying in parkstone and couldn't find anywhere decent we could collect from. Then we spotted this one. Great pizza. Good service. Just before we left with our pizza we noticed there was a real ale pub next door. Next time we will order our pizza and go next door for a pint while we wait.

K. B.

Amazing pizza. Great value for money. Friendly service. Highly recommended

M. A.

One of the best pizza I have ever had, lovely staff, great atmosphere, felt like I was in Italy. I Highly recommend 👌🏻

S. A.

Da Mario is an experience and a definite must visit. I can see myself abandoning all other pizza providers!! A very authentic atmosphere, from the beautiful food to the wonderful service and great conversation. They don't have a licence to serve alcohol but you can bring your own drinks with a small corkage charge- which makes for a fab evening out!

R. G.

Amazing pizza, amazing service, great atmosphere. Couldn't recommend highly enough. Can't wait to go again!!

L. C.

Just had a lovely weekend in Bournemouth, booked this reataurant from reviews on trip advisor. Lovely place, nice atmosphere and lovely staff and one of the best pizzas we have had in ages. Also good value for money and bring your own alcohol 😄

K. P.

Visiting for a Christmas meal with a group of around 14 people. First impressions are that staff are attentive and reactive, the simple seating plan allows for this. The seating is limited so I would book ahead to not disappoint. This is a BYOB restaurant so bear that in mind. Menu select is generous but not overly so that picking a pizza becomes difficult due to the ominous food envy you are about to endure. You can add whatever toppings they have to your pizza (I had a margarita with pepperoni and spinach). Some of the group had starters, garlic bread and garlic bread with cheese, both were excellent, and I would recommend. I can honestly say it is one of the best wood fired pizzas I have had. The base had that perfect texture with clear hints of wood fired goodness. There was a perfect amount of sauce and cheese, not too much to swamp the base but not too little to leave you wanting. The pepperoni was delicious, not the stuff you get from big pizza takeaway, genuine pepperoni. The spinach was just spinach but what made the pizza was the absolute perfect amount of it, like the Chef read my mind when I pictured the pizza at the time of ordering. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit, prices are respectable, and you will leave content your money was well spent. I will be returning soon and recommending to friends.

K. C.

Portobello starter was amazing, pizzas were great as well! Thank you!

W. B.

Best pizza I have ever eaten,... we will be back for sure. Staff were lovely too.

E. G.

'Da Mario's gets a definite 5 stars from our family. We absolutely loved the relaxed, homely and lovely vibrant atmosphere here. The food is truly well prepared, delicious and wonderfully authentic. The team of staff are all helpful, attentive and friendly. We look foward to our next visit.

A. O.

For me it's the best pizza on town.

A. K.

Attended this restaurant with my family & cousins (12 of us) whilst on our weekend away. The staff were absolutely amazing! The most friendly & attentive staff & the food was great! They offered us extra information which tied in with our Halal dietary requirements & extra starters which were not specified on the Menu. We were all Over the MOON about this! Thank you!

I. C.

Amazing! I always order from them and now I found out they do gluten free pizzas.Best pizza !

D. K.

Best pizzas I’ve ever had and the desserts were all perfect. The employees were just as good as the food and were all friendly. I highly recommend going there as you will leave happier than you entered

T. W. C. D.

EXCELLENT PIZZA IN TOWN. We had a really good pizza night at this place. We booked a table at 8:30, staff seemed really busy so we waited a while before being served, but we weren’t on rush. The waitress double checked all the times about our order to make sure we receive everything asked for so super satisfied about the service even if slow. They don’t have alcohol licence, but you can bring your own (small fee applied). We ordered 1 bruschetta (generously topped), 1 caprese and 1 burrata with Parma ham as starters: small portions but good taste. We than ordered 2 Vesuvio pizza, and the quality was Simply AMAZING. Me and my boyfriend never stopped to say it was sooo good at every bite, only wished to have more half folded filled pizza as described in the menu. We also had couple of desserts. At the end of the dinner, the guy (pizzaiolo, which I guess it’s the owner/manager) came to the table to check everything was fine providing a really good customer service. Only at that point, we realised it was not Italian: just to confirm as soon as you put love and knowledge in what you do, You don’t need to be Italian to make a good tasteful pizza. (Said from us, 100% Italian!!!!) DEFINITELY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

j. q.

Walked from Alum Chine, suspension bridge. That was impressive. Then arrived at Da Mario Wood fire pizza restaurant. Sat outside on a November evening with our two cockapoos. Mario's was buzzing...picked up a bottle of red. Then pizza arrived. Buffalo with rocket. The Pizza base magic. We are experts when its comes to Napoli pizza's. Only one place that rivals and thats in London...waiter kind and into his deserts...thanks matti. Owner was charming, historically knowledgable about Westbourne, he made our evening....Will be back....Jonnie&Zohra

Big portion, typical italian food and music, pay just cash

Very good service, quality food and really good value. The pizza was ok to start..... then the owner came out during the meal and asked if there was anything we needed. I explained my taste and he brought out the two perfect sauces to compliment. Made the whole experience great! 🤩

Absolutely wonderful evening tonight at Da Mario's! We haven't been there for a few years and the change of management has done the venue the world of good. Wonderful atmosphere with the very cheerful owner and fabulous service from the lovely waitress. Food was gorgeous, excellent quality (best pizza ever) and the starters and desserts were really enjoyed. £80 for 4 of us having drinks and 3 courses each. If you haven't been there yet, don't hesitate to go! We're all looking forward to returning. Big thumbs up from us all! From Catherine, Patrick, Joe & Lauren XXX

It felt like dinner and a show. I was mesmerised watching them busily at work in the kitchen. A little wait for the most delicious pizza I have tasted since visiting Italy. We will definitely be back and can not recommend the place. Lovely people. Xxx,,

Excellent food and superb staff, just a little compact and cash only.

The shop itself is small, however this only adds to the atmosphere, and the pizza... It's amazing! You're not left feeling stodgy and full like most pizzas you feel light and satisfied! I ordered the Inter, which was chicken, salami and pepperoni and id reccomend if you want a meaty pizza! BYOB too so you don't have to worry about not enjoying their wine etc. Would definitely recommend!

Seriously, better than Lake Garda and Rome pizza experiences I've had. Remember it's bring your own drinks (they have soft drinks). CASH ONLY & Corkage fees. Service was a little frantic and it's clearly more of a takeaway but still a lovely place, can't fault the food whatsoever!

Possibly the best pizza I’ve ever had. Lovely atmosphere and incredible food. Would happily go again!
