Pizza Pilgrims Brighton, The Amalfi Mezzanine

Wow, this place did the best gluten free pizza I've ever eaten!!! (...and if you look at my past reviews, I've had quite a few) The restaurant is situated just a few minutes from the beach, in a relatively quiet food area that a Californian lady I met yesterday described as "So cute!" I'm not sure about the cuteness, but the area certainly doesn't offend the eyes. I came on a non-Friday weekday, and it was quite quiet, with a very relaxed atmosphere. It probably gets more busy on the weekends if liveliness is your thing. I was a bit unsure of the pickled cucumber salad, but it was really good. Refreshing, not too vinegary, and a little chilli kick. The maiale pizza with gluten free base was so good. A little bit chewy in the middle, but it puffed up around the edges and wasn't dry and tooth-breaking like the usual gluten free pizza bases. (A word of warning for coeliacs - the place is gluten free friendly, but can't guarantee cross contamination - I'm just intolerant, so it didn't bother me, but others need to be more careful.) For dessert I had the pistachio affogato, and for drink the amalfi lemonade - two more things I had never tasted before and look forward to trying again! Thanks to the incredible waiters and chefs for the brilliant food and service. I might just have to come back again tomorrow. Let's wait and see...

I recently tried the truffle pizza and it was delicious! The truffle flavor was strong and the pizza crust was fresh and perfectly cooked. The size of the pizza was also just right, not too small or too big. I highly recommend it for any truffle lovers out there!
