After a fun day on the beach we were quite hungry for pizza!We happened to be walking home and saw Locale, and instantly remembered friends had tried and raved about it!We walked in and were greeted with friendly hellos and big smiles from the chef and assistant! The pizza aroma upon entering was absolutely delightful! After pondering over the menu, we ordered the everything pizza and mushroom truffle special.A mere 20 minutes later, we were seated outside enjoying our piping hot, fresh out of the brick pizza oven pizza! The bf couldnt seem to eat his fast enough, and I wanted to savor every bite of mine! The ingredients were fresh, the sauce was perfectly spread, and the crust - perfection of dough that is perfectly thick, but slightly thin and crispy, and packed with so much flavor!As we ventured home we felt full, but not overly stuffed! The portions are filling (I only hate 1/2) and was so excited to have some for lunch the following day! The prices are more than fair for size and quality!We will be adding this to our carousel of favorite places in town!
If you haven’t tried Locale Eatery yet you are missing out! They are a new local restaurant in downtown Cocoa Beach and have some of the most amazing pizzas, Italian cuisine, and coffees! Don’t get me started on the tiramisu it’s insane🤯 Great family and locally owned. Today is their first day back after a month of being closed due to COVID. Check them out, trust me 🔥
I spent last weekend in Cocoa Beach and was totally surprised to find this little gem…an authentic Italian owner-operated pizzeria, where customers are treated like family. Since we were a party of seven, we were able to try different dishes and every single one was better than the last...all hand made from scratch! You can definitely taste the difference of natural tomato sauce with fresh basil and a crunchy (but still soft) pizza dough. I want to specifically point out the Puccia (a totally new discovery for me), a kind of sandwich/pita bread filled with porchetta (sliced pork meat). Also, the the calzone is a must try (a folded pizza with ricotta and mozzarella cheese). And the Tiramisu is to “die for”!. I cannot wait to go back and try everything on the menu (or repeat them!).
Best Italian place ever! I have tried their pizzas, their puccias, their salads, their gnocchis, their tiramisu, their cannoli, and now their raviolis! Amazing and impressed as always!!! I am a fan of this place and will never trade them for any other restaurant. I live in Indialantic and this restaurant is in Cocoa Beach so I don’t even mind the drive. Is worth it!!!!!!
The pizza is great. They even have a gluten free option for those that need it, which isn’t common in the area. When I went though, two employees. One young, one older. Older gentleman working the checkout not wearing a mask, and didn’t want to put one on even after I politely asked. Skip this place until the pandemic ends.
Such amazing food. I’ve been to Italy and I can honestly say it reminded me of the delicious food there and their cannolis here were actually even better than Italy! We got a pizza and crab ravioli and oh my gosh I just want to eat it all over again!
The perfect place for pizza after a day at the beach!!! The staff are fun & welcoming, and they have tables they can set up outside too. Get the Alessandra pizza, you won’t regret it😋
My parents have a shop nearby that my husband and I were watching as a favor. We could smell his food, and it smelled delicious. Sent my husband over to order us two small personal pizzas and a cannoli to share. The owner himself hand delivered it to us when our food was ready. I had a regular pepperoni and my husband had the Dolce E Piccante. Both were excellent. His pizza was a sweeter sauce with a very light heat. My pepperoni had a great mix of cheese, sauce, and spices. The cheese was the perfect amount, and had a perfect texture to it. The cannoli was out of this world! We shared one, but fought over the last of the crumbs! Id give this extra stars if I could!Update 9/9/2020: We were back in town visiting and couldnt wait to have more pizza! It was even better than I remembered, and we thought to order 2 cannoli this time! My only regret is that you dont have a location in Tennessee!
This is some of the best Italian we have had in a long time and hands down the best caprese ever. Friendly service and the food was so delicious! Great restaurant- we will be returning often! Highly recommend!!!
This place was absolutely amazing!! Not only is it the best authentic Italian food Ive ever eaten but it is ran by the sweetest couple youd ever like to meet. I will definitely be back with the family and am excited to try more items from there unique menu selections. Thanks for the wonderful experience!!!
Excellent pizza, with authentic Italian style recipe, and capresse salad is a must. Italian beer, and other products for sale, but the best is the service and attentive smile from the manager, and if you ate in for the hidden gem, a Nutella calzone for dessert will blow you away. Grazie!!
Amazing pizza, super friendly staff. I really cant recommend them enough.
Seriously best pizza in cocoa beach! It was heaven. The crust was the right mix of chewy and crispy, the sauce and cheese was such good quality! New favorite place!
Fresh bread, quality ingredients, flavorful food. The staff were friendly and the prices are reasonable.
Best pizza in Cocoa Beach! And oh my the tiramisu is to die for!!! I’m glad my neighbor recommended them. Wood fired pizza and all fresh authentic ingredients. The couple that owns it are so sweet. It’s our new go to place for take out.

This is an authentic Italian Pizza- Pasta place with homemade flavor and warm service, love the Tiramisu, and the lasagna, again is traditional kitchen not manufactured Italian like the chain! Give them a try! We will be back! Keep the hard work!
SO glad I read these reviews. We went there just to try the TIRAMISU because everyone raved about it and they were SO right! OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS! 👍 My husband loved his pork la Puccia.....Cant wait to go back! 😋😋😋

Great calzone and Allesandra pizza!!
I have an allergy to glyphosate (Monsanto roundup) that is sprayed on wheat as a desiccant during harvest. I don’t like to call it an “allergy” as it is toxic to everyone I just am more susceptible to external reactions and am more aware because of this.I always try to find pizza shops that use an Italian imported flour. At the time I ate at Locale they were using caputo brand flour which is a smaller, 100 year old heirloom wheat farm in Naples Italy, and is glyphosate free as well as free from many other toxic things involved with wheat processing. It is actually nutritious for you and the taste is not comparable to American wheat especially mass produced variety.They use this brand flour for their pizza but their desserts are a mix of different brand flours. The owner was helpful in providing information to suite my needs. Please research the dangers of glyphosate and wheat flour in america.Now for the food part. My wife and I make homemade pizza using exotic imported European flours and cheeses from small organic Amish farms, and or USDA organic flours, etc etc we try to find pizza that is close to the quality found in parts of Italy. The quality of the dough is up there, properly proofed and baked. The pizza is really really good. It’s a different style than what you would find at Mangia y Bevi up the street. They both have their own style. But what I really loved was the sandwich.The sandwich dough is the same as the pizza dough. They pop it in the oven. there are not many places you can go to eat where the sandwich bread comes out and is still hot from the oven. Because of the owner and his wife’s ethnic backgrounds and cultural experiences, the sandwich (and other dishes) have a South American zestyness with a perfection on quality like an Italian dish. It’s an incredible combination.I told the owner he should apply for a Michelin star rating for the sandwich. It was that good. The desserts were also phenomenal. Coffee was good as well. Nice espresso style coffee. The desserts were all really amazing, however I feel that as time goes on and they get busier they won’t be able to keep up with making these desserts as they are very time consuming to make. The Tiramisu was the best we’ve every had. I hope that dish sticks around. The service, friendliness, cleanliness were all exceptional although the food was so good I wouldn’t care if they spit in it.
OMG the Truffle Pizza to Die for. Best Crust in town.!!!!
Followed online reviews to this newer eatery. Had an Amazing lunch of lasagne, after debating between the delicious looking pizza. Everything is homemade with quality products (you can tell by the taste). We came back tonight to get a to- go-order of tiramasu, which I never really liked in the past, but theirs is Amazing! I highly recommend eating here. SayHello to the owners, they are terrific and very committed to making your meal and experience top notch!
Just found my go to pizza place in Cocoa Beach! Great food, Wonderful people - Highly recommend!
