02/09/2025: First of all, I live in the area, and this is my go-to place for takeout pizza. Their pizza shape is different from the classic pizza we all imagine; they offer a much thinner and crispier version. If you don't like it, you can still order the "double dough" version for an additional €1, which is the same as a regular pizza.
I've also eaten at the restaurant a few times, and I've also had the traditional hot mixed seafood platter and the peppered mussels... They're delicious; you can tell they're fresh, and the portions are generous.
The prices are fair; I personally really like their pizza; it's always very light.
The atmosphere is very nice, with both indoor and outdoor seating, perfect for both summer and winter.
The only downside is the service: it's very slow, and even on weekdays, when it's quieter, it can take a long time to get a waiter's attention.
01/09/2025: If you're looking for the warmth of home, top-quality products, and a welcome that makes you instantly feel part of the family... you can't leave Parma without experiencing San Martino.
Here, it's more than just a meal: it's a dive into authentic Mediterranean and Parmesan cuisine, where the fish arrives fresh daily and the pizzas—always thin, easy to digest, made with traditional flours, whole wheat, or kamut—are a true delight. And the latest addition? The deep-dish, soft, and crispy pizzas, adding an innovative twist to tradition.
The ambiance? Harmonious, elegant, and intimate, with a heated outdoor veranda for cooler evenings and a small dining room perfect for group dinners or more intimate moments, as well as a lovely smoking room.
Then, the wine bar: an enviable selection, with around 290 labels including Italian wines, champagnes, and international selections—ideal for accompanying every course and ending the evening with gusto.
The service is a symphony of courtesy, efficiency, and familiarity: the kindness that only people who truly appreciate you can convey.
Whether it's an evening with friends or a family dinner, San Martino welcomes you as only a family can. Highly recommended, wholeheartedly.
In the heart of Parma, you now have another place to call "YOURS."
P.S.
The pizza alta is a masterpiece. Try it and believe it.
