Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples. Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

We had dinner with family at Bella Venezia and every dish was amazing. Our 9 year old grandson ate a whole large pizza which he has never done before plus some kifler potatoes. The fish was fresh and perfectly cooked and flavours of the sauces were amazing. The pasta and gnocchi were beautifully presented and perfect size.

Have previously had some disappointments with the overall experience but this time I could not fault them. The requested seating, the quality of service which was patient and friendly, the food was perfectly prepared and presented and the costs were in the normal range for this type of restaurant and time of year.

Pavilion was so lovely to eat at. The decor was cute and casual but the food made it next level. The view over mooloolaba beach was stunning and I loved the whole experience. I had the mushroom ravioli with a glass of wine and am so happy with all of it. A stunning experience.
