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 a wonderful evening at Estancia Maria. Our outside table was comfortable and the ambience was lovely and relaxing. Staff were all lovely and helpful giving you space but were there when we needed a drink top up or to order. We had an assortment of food to try and it was all wonderful. All empanadas, yum. The Eggplant Escabeche was delicious as was the Choripan. Delicious wine went well with all the food. So nice to have a lovely place to enjoy a catch up with friends. Pisco Sour's took us back to South America.
