Having finally eaten everything on the menu I can only conclude that this is the best Pizza joint in town (yes, it's better than Pronto In Tavola, and yes, it's better than Pizzaface). Pizza500 have all the fundamentals; great base, great sauce, great combinations - the Granducato is the best pizza i've eaten outside of Napoli - and the fact that they humbly and discreetly produce the best ice cream that you'll find in Brghton (a town not running short of ice cream vendors) is an incredible bonus. Grape sorbet, caramelised pine nut ice cream, melon sorbet, pistacchio ice cream and even carrot ice cream, to name a small few; every gelato i've had from them is intricately nuanced and full of flavour.
If you're eating in, there's an open kitchen and hand-carved wooden furniture to sit on outdoors, and the selection of Italian beers is great if you're a lager fan.
The staff, who are, unsurprisingly, rushed off their feet most of the time, remain some of the nicest people you're likely to see all day.
Simply put, this is the finest restaurant of its kind in Brighton, well done Pizza500.
First time and we totally enjoyed the food was amazing the staff very friendly and helpful highly recommended eating here you won't be let down!!!!! Also the price of the food is great value for money �������
This place made me feel like I was in Italy. A lovely vibe, great food, really friendly staff. Thank you.
Awesome pizza and great toppings for takeaway . Would highly recommend this place. Next time we'll eat in.
I might have a Pizza 500 addiction �
Great place, great people, great food.
...say no more.
Absolutely the best pizza I have had outside of Sorrento. Excellent food, great value for money, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff. Highly recommended.
I used to live right round the corner from here and I'm very glad they weren't open back then - we would have become extremely fat from eating here all the time ;-)
Really enjoyed my meal at Pizza500 last night! Amazing pizza and wine and very reasonably priced. Can't wait to go again.
Amazing food, and wonderful service, we highly recommend it. �
Amazing food as always, love this place, and such good value, thank you for squeezing us in and looking after us despite how busy you were 😊😊😊
Lovely place. Good food very friendly and not expensive definitely going back!
Fantastic pizza, espresso and gelato. Ok the space is what it is- not the most comfortable- but easily forgiven for getting the basics right!
Many thanks for two fantastic pizzas, real ones, not the plastic takeaway sort. and great attentive and friendly staff.
Quirky little restaurant with lots of Fiat pictures around. Great service and delicious food. Happy my brother knew this place as it could easily be passed by otherwise. The only photo I took was of his drink. Although I wasn't keen on it, he loved it, stating it's apparently the Italian equivalent of Dr. Pepper!
Just be careful of the step in and out of the restaurant as not easily visible or expected in the dark/ evening... and I was sober. Hahaha
Pizza 500 is the restaurant in Brighton worth coming to.
The standard menu will satisfy anyone's needs. The specials are also to be recommended.
The location has its own charm and the family staff most helpful and friendly.
If you want a good, value for money restaurant in Brighton, away from the crowds, this is place to come.
Pizza 500 has quickly become one of my favourite spots in Brighton.
Quirky, so authentic, so Italian, friendly and yummy!
The pizzas are made by hand - and you can sense the quality.
Leo, operating this pizzeria with his 2 sons and his adorable mum, make me happy every time I eat there.
“Pizza Marco” is my favourite choice of pizza.
Oh, and the prices are very reasonable!
Been going for years. Went on Sat night, whilst obviously very busy with takeaway orders (helmeted delivery drivers lumbering about) wasn’t full of dine-ins and a bit disappointed to be right by the door (I have no doubt rectifiable) but it’s a loading bay joint and that’s the vibe.
Chef baulked at daughter’s request for Parmesan on pizza but taken in spirt ,and stated on menu.
Pizzas were outstanding, super fresh and tasty ,and the house red in plastic glasses fine.
Service good but waiters seemed a little nervous, maybe new.
All in all, good so long as you know you’re in a drafty ex Italian garage (Lamborghini visible in Stafford’s yard opposite) and definitely not your (dull) chain pizza joint
We enjoyed in the summer where there is a snug back seating area and I’ll come again in the winter, but family less keen on rustic atmosphere at this time of year though.
Food excellent 5. Would give 4.5 for atmos and service if allowed by app.
I've eaten at Pizza 500 twice now, and it has been delicious both times.
Clearly this business is run authentically by people that know what's important in a restaurant - great ingredients cooked fantastically. And the results are incredible - one of the best pizza restaurants in Brighton, with great fish and pasta options too! The homemade gelato is also outstanding.
I highly recommend a visit here to anyone who wants a genuine taste of Italy in Brighton.
Amazing family run pizzeria with daily specials. Have been here several times with my family and it doesn't disappoint. This time I tried the coconut cake and some gelato for pudding, just divine. Our go to place when visiting kids at uni. Also love the pear juice 😋
Heavenly pizza, super tasty and traditional the best pizza in Brighton! Highly recommend dining in, the staff are so friendly and attentive. We will be back to try the homemade gelato and for more pizza!
Edited my original review as I've now eaten here multiple times. The food here just keeps delivering amazing taste and quality EVERY TIME. Staff are bloody lovely, helpful and knowledgeable about menu items. All very very fairly priced. Generous toppings. Beer garden. All set in an Italian garage. Highly recommend! You'll regret missing this hidden gem
‘True traditional humble Italian experience.’ When you visit Pizza 500, you have to imagine you went to a local pizzeria in Calabria, Italy! Next to Sicily. You are served with local rules of Italian traditional dining. That is the truth about experiencing different cuisines! Pizza 500 is truly a family business, when upon entering you are greeted & seated by Valentina, Owner’s son, and served delicious 100% homemade pizzas by Dad/chef Leo and if that is not enough & you are already full, the grandmother makes homemade ancient recipe of heavenly slice of Tiramisu. I’ve never been to Italy before, but today I can tell Italians are best known for their loving & memorable hospitality. Thank you Pizza 500 Family X
A great and unique place to eat, great atmosphere and friendly attentive service and very good value for money. Has an authentic Italian feel, great for people watching.
