La Riva An Bang Italian restaurant & Bar
Description
The wood-fired pizzas carry the meal here, with a crisp, lightly charred edge and a chewy centre that holds up under generous toppings. Burrata pesto is the sharper choice, while the meat-heavy pizzas lean into the oven’s smoky flavour. This is serious Italian cooking a short walk from An Bang Beach.
The kitchen makes its own cannoli and limoncello, then backs them with pasta, antipasti, cheesecake, and a long list of Italian standards. Pizza gets the strongest vote, but dessert deserves room: the cheesecake is rich and cleanly finished, while cannoli make a fitting finish after a salty, smoky pie. Pasta needs a confident hand with the table seasoning.
Aperol drinks and cocktails are unusually good, with Italian wines providing a proper alternative to another beer after the beach. The room has enough space for an evening meal, and the heat makes sunset the sensible time to settle in. La Riva earns its place for pizza with real fermentation and house-made sweets, not beach-road novelty.
Flies and an unpleasant smell can intrude on the dining room, so choose a table away from the bathroom area. The pizza oven remains the point of the visit, especially for burrata pesto or a fully loaded ham pie.
