What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Pizzeria Agli Amici is highly praised for its authentic, thin-crust, wood-fired pizzas and delicious pasta dishes. Diners rave about the generous portions and excellent quality, often calling it the best pizza in Phuket. However, the lack of air conditioning can make the dining experience uncomfortably hot, and some guests were surprised by the cash-only policy.
"The largest pizza size is amazing and tastes great. Highly recommended, but tastes vary from person to person.
The restaurant is open from 4pm to 10pm and closed on Mondays. The last order may be after 9:30pm.
Regarding the issue of air conditioning, I think the wood-fired kiln and open environment are to keep the pizza at its best taste, and installing air conditioning may affect it.
The staff has a clear division of labor. I saw 5 people: 2 kitchen chefs and 3 waiters, and they cooperated well.
Currently only cash or Thai QR payment is accepted, so it is recommended to prepare in advance.
The location is relatively hidden, but it is definitely worth finding.
The overall experience is very good."

"The pizza is very tasty and very filling. The service is very good, but the restaurant does not have air conditioning and the environment is very hot. the fans do not allow for the heat in the restaurant. We ate very well but were completely sweaty. The pizzas are not cheap. They could invest in an air conditioner. It is worth mentioning that they do not accept cards and there is no warning that they only accept cash."

"This was my first visit after reading some strong endorsements in social media. Food quality, serving temperature and speed of execution was top notch. It was an early dinner, so the restaurant was less than 50% occupied.
We ordered a salad to share, a course of ravioli and one of their pizzas. For a restaurant that’s been operating since 2011 with all the glowing online reviews, I would expect that the management team to have a good handle on how Italian food courses should be paced.
All our three courses arrived simultaneously! I was faced with the choice of eating my salad and watching flys get to my dishes before I did. That’s right, at ฿500 pp, no air conditioning or fly-free option.
Would I recommend Pizzeria Agli Amici? Perhaps takeout as the food is truly tasty.
I would also recommend that the restaurant invest in some signage notifying guests that no credit cards are accepted. It’s surprising in this price range."
