Pizzeria Santa Lucia
About
Nestled in the historic town of Presezzo, Pizzeria Santa Lucia is a family‑owned culinary gem that has been serving the region since 1985. Known for its traditional “pizza al metro” (by the metre) and an impressive array of fresh seafood, the restaurant offers a warm, informal ambience that invites both locals and tourists alike. The wood‑fired oven imparts a signature smoky crust, while ingredients are locally sourced to guarantee the freshest flavours. Outside, a charming terrace provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining during the warmer months. Visitors can enjoy a selection of antipasti such as the popular “gran fritto” or seafood starters, followed by pasta dishes like scialatelli or trofie. The menu’s creativity and quality ensure a memorable meal, and the relaxed service makes it a favourite among families and couples. Reservations by phone are recommended during peak evenings, although walk‑ins are welcomed during off‑peak times. Operating from 12:00 to 15:00 and again from 18:00 to 24:00, Monday is the only closed day. The two‑hour lunch window allows for a relaxed meal, while the extended dinner hours cater to late‑night cravings.
