Honestly some of the best pizzas with a real authentic flavour. We had 3 different pizzas among the family.

One option for a family member was gluten free, vegan cheese (Lactose free) and they also rated these pizzas 10/10.

Definitely go here for pizza. Dine in or sit by the water with a picnic rug.

We were trying to book another place that was full so we came to this place and I am so glad we did. The wood fire pizzas were excellent, the service was great, a lovely terrace outside were the kids can play. We had a lovely dinner, we will definitely come back! We had ham and cheeses, 4 cheeses and truffle and mushroom pizza! I recommend 100% It’s also BYO with a bottle shop right next door! Just perfect!

Disappointing for the price via Doordash. Pizza underside was burnt so badly it tasted like the base was made of charcoal. Antipasti platter didn't match the description, no vegetables, subbed olives which i didn't want and wouldn't have ordered if it specified olives. Only had prosciutto and baby burrata ball and 8 grapes, with a bunch of bread. The salad was nice atleast.

Absolutely sensational flavours! Every pizza was flavoursome and then the Pistachio tiramisu came out and I was in heaven!

We were a party of 7 and there was a lot of variety and so much to taste. We got some recommendations from Elia, the owner, and we ran with it. The crust of every pizza was perfectly cooked with a delightful char, and the toppings were fresh and bursting with flavor just like authentic italian pizza should be - every bite was pure deliciousness. The Nutella pizza was pretty special. I certainly havent had one quite that well made before. I have never had dough so perfectly made full stop. Complements to the Elia, the dough maker! I tasted the love and pride in the food.

The friendly service and pure joy Elia was oozing was not only with our table, but every table as we watched him and his staff wait throughout the restaurant. It was a very inviting atmosphere and that atmosphere made the dining experience even better. Hands down, the best woodfired pizzas I've ever had, and I will definitely be back for more!

It was absolutely worth the drive up from Sydney after reading all the wonderful reviews.

The pizzas were not insta worthy. In fact, my first thought on their potato and sausage pizza was it’s a sad looking pizza. But they’re bursting with flavours. Glad I visited this restaurant. The cheesecake was also drizzled with amaretto cherries and the combination complimented each other. Also enjoyed their gelato.

Had a nice family dinner. The owner Luigi is very friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing and taste exactly like the pizzas in Italy. If you’re looking for a restaurant in this area with a nice vibe and good food, this is the place for you!

We are so glad we finally tried Sorrento Pizzeria, it was honestly the best pizza we have had on the Central Coast. I cannot fault any of our meal, the service was impeccable from the minute we walked in to the minute we left. We started with the Garlic pizza bites, on the recommendation of the staff, and we were not disappointed. So much flavour, herbs, garlic, drizzled with olive oil, simply delicious. Then the main event of The Bastardo! The base was perfection, true, honest Italian pizza base. Soft, fluffy, smoky, slightly crispy on the bottom. The toppings were so tasty, the fennel in the sausage added another depth to the meal. I just wish we had of taken photos to share. I cannot recommend Sorrento Pizzeria enough, especially if you are after an traditional, authentic pizza.
