About Goccia Italian Pizzeria

Mermaid Beach regulars know better than to gamble on a walk-in at Goccia. Tables fill fast for woodfired pies pulled hot from the Marana oven. Expat Italians routinely steer visiting relatives here for the crust alone—an airy cornicione holding toppings from potato and sausage to fresh seafood without sagging. The kitchen treats gluten-free dough with equal seriousness, leaving just enough room to finish on a slice of house tiramisu.

  • Wood-Fired Crusts: Baked in an authentic Marana Forni woodfire oven for a blistered rim and balanced chew.
  • Italian Expat Approved: Local Italian expats routinely bring family and friends here for genuine regional taste and hospitality.
  • Seafood & Pastas: Generously topped frutti di mare pizzas and classic pasta dishes anchor the savoury side of the menu.
  • Dietary & Group Options: Crisp gluten-free pizza crusts and multi-flavour sharing slabs comfortably accommodate mixed groups.

  • Spaced Seating for Relaxed Conversation

    Thoughtful dining room layout with generously spaced tables allows audible, intimate conversation without dining hall clamor.

    Really spaced out tables inside and definitely not crowded - also able to have a conversation over the table unlike many other places.
