“I recently dined at Santa Maria Italian in Tairua, and I was absolutely delighted with the pizza I ordered. The flavors were authentic and mouthwatering, reminding me of the true essence of Italian cuisine. The crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. The cozy ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend Santa Maria Italian for anyone seeking an authentic taste of Italy right here in Tairua.”
If you are passing through, make a point to stop here. Listen this food is simply divine. It hit the spot and was the most pleasant unexpected gourmet flavour experience of our trip. We absolutely loved what we ate and savoured every single bite. The food is fresh and the wood fire pizza is something straight out of Italy. These are not just words do your taste buds a favour mi amigos and enjoy this incredible experience. I cant recommend this highly enough. I will drive out of my way to make it back here just to experience the goodness one... more.. time.
This is just the perfect pizza experience, sitting outside in the evening sun, with the music playing…
Best of all, easily the best pizza in New Zealand!
Lovely couple who own it, excellent service. The pizza bases are home made and delicious. I got a vegan pizza which was yummo.
Ordered a seafood pizza that was to die for. Such delicious authentic Italian food, and wonderful people who served it. Thank you to the team at Santa Maria! Side note: definitely get the homemade aioli with fries, you won’t regret it.
What a lovely find! The wood oven is made by the chef himself, who is from Italy. The pizza + the cheese garlic bread were amazing. A must-go if you’re passing by
