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.

My partner and I visited Bella Venezia while on holiday for our anniversary and enjoyed our time there. Our waiter, Brendan was very knowledgeable about all the dishes, the different flavours in them and what location they’re from. We really appreciated his service as this is what made the experience even better. My partner and I got the 7 course meal and walked out with a nice full belly. If you have a special occasion or are looking to just indulge, this is the place. Thank you Bella Venezia!

Service was excellent. The food and drinks were extremely good. The only down side was the road noise. But can put up with that for the high standard of service and food.

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.
