5€ more for vegan pizza 🥹but was delicious

First of all, the location is very cute (but there were a lot of mosquitos when we’ve been there is be prepared). Be aware that they charge 5€ more just for vegan cheese on the pizza (I asked them what’s so special about their Vegan pizza that justifies 5€ more and they said just the cheese 🥲), gluten free pizza is also 5€ more. But still the pizza was one of the best we had in Italy so I still recommend it. 😊

Ok pizza and vegan options

Pizzas can be made with vegan cheese for an extra of €5. I asked for the veg pizza without cheese as I haven't had a vegan cheese in in Italy I enjoyed so far.
Pizza was ok but I have had definitely had better pizza dough while in Italy.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Expensive

Good but be prepared to pay a premium for vegan cheese

Amalfi is expensive no matter what, but the €5 extra for vegan cheese is an ouchy upcharge, especially given it was €3 the year before. Italian vegan cheese is actually quite affordable and a lot of it is produced in the country rather than being imported. Just saying. I also wished there was olive oil to dip the doughy crust into. The pizza tasted good, but I wasn't terribly excited about the crust.

3 stars because at least it wasn't a boring cheeseless pizza. Note that vegetarian options are marked on the menu, not vegan (except the €5 upcharge for vegan cheese).

Favourite in Amalfi

Amazing vegan pizza, as well as vegan friendly wine. Came here twice while staying in Amalfi. The pizza is really good and won't let you down. I really like the setting of the restaurant too. Without HappyCow I don't think I would have found it.

5 stars

This place is delicious. Hands down favorite meal and they have vegan cheese, pepperoni and plenty of options. I had the salad with grilled zucchini, bruschetta, a vegan pizza with cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms and vegan sausage. I’m from Long Beach, and I’m not gonna lie we have way better options but this was a pleasant experience in a town without any options really for vegans. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting. More on the romantic, date vibe.

Pros: Ambiance, Vegan pizza, Location (quite and quant)

Cons: Service is slow, No signage for waiting guests , Little difficult to find

Good but pricey

We had the vegan pesto gnocchi (you have to request this and if they have a batch they will accomodate you and it will be €3 extra because it’s the vegan option). It was delicious. We also had the vegetarian pizza without cheese because they charge €5 for vegan cheese substitute which is a bit too much for us to justify. We also had the bruschetta which was lovely.

Good pizza

We arrived at 8pm hoping to get a table for dinner but unfortunately they were completely booked out. A customer with a booking behind us said we should definitely come back as it's really good. We were very disappointed as the dining area looks so cute with a huge lemon tree over it.
We ordered a takeaway Napoletana pizza, and that was very good.
I've now seen the other HC reviews that people have mentioned a pesto gnocchi and vegan sausage pizza?? I don't remember seeing that, but it sounds amazing.

Vegan pizza and gnocchi!

On the menu it has vegan pizza option, basically any pizza can be made vegan, they have vegan cheese and also vegan sausage ! We went back the following night and had the pesto gnocchi as they said it can be made vegan and it was really delicious!

The staff were really lovely and I suggest making a reservation, we were able to get a table just walking in around 6;30 but after that they said they were fully booked!

So cute and good food!

The patio is like sitting in a lemon tree! Hours say they open at 11, but they asked us to come back at 12.
Pizza was good—and good vegan cheese!

Happy Dance

Found this gem whilst walking around, staff were nice, and we were able to walk in and grab a table for two without a reservation. This was around 6.30pm, but at 7.15pm queues started to form, and people had to wait half an hour for a table. It was so nice to find a place with vegan options, and pizza that had vegan cheese on it! Portions were large and filling. The location was beautiful. I loved sitting under the lemon trees!

Pros: Staff, Venue, Options

Great find!

We ate here almost every day on our adventures! I never knew I needed lemon pepper fries in my life!!! The pizzas are great, they even have vegan gnocchi. The restaurant is super cute with lemon trees hanging above the tables!

Vegan mozzarella

It is very rare to find vegan cheese on pizzas in italy so we were very excited for Pizzeria Donna Stella. And we really liked the pizza. You can exchange the normal mozzarella with vegan mozzerella on every pizza. Pleace note that they have a new menue which doesn‘t show the vegan mozzerella option any more. We told the staff about it, they were a little surprised. Also not every staff member knows about the vegan cheese, so don‘t hesitate to ask.
Update: we went there again and had a menue which had the vegan cheese option written on it. So it depends.

Updated from previous review on 2023-04-08

Pros: Vegan cheese

Cons: Vegan cheese option is not on the menue

The staff were extremely friendly and the atmosphere was gentle and very beautiful! It made us at ease asking about vegan options and the menu clearly states that they can add vegan cheese for an extra €3, the pizzas were delicious and we were both very happy!

Pros: Vegan cheese!, Friendly staff, Good portion size

Cons: Extra cost for vegan cheese

Wonderful

So good to at last have vegan versions of local specialities, especially pizzette, deep fried dough with tomato and parmigiana vegana on top. Amazing! The gnocchi with pesto was so creamy nutty. Very special. Pizza was nice too.

Make sure you read all the vegan options in the reviews here as some servers do not know what is possible/available, so get them to ask and all will be fine. They are very nice about it.

Lovely tucked away setting withplenty of outdoor seating.

Pros: Pizzette, Vegan cheeses are great, Vegan pesto gnocchi fab

Cons: Need to know what is possible to ask, If it rains heavily they close

VEGAN CHEESE

We had dinner there and we were so excited about our first pizza with vegan cheese in Italia and it was worth it! All the pizza can be made vegan with vegan cheese. We splitted the gnocchi for starters with vegan pesto and parm and it was delicious also! Would highly recommend! It is also a quite crowded place so you should maybe make a reservation or be wiling to wait!

Must Visit for Vegans. Will be visiting for our dinner every day of our stay!

Absolutely loved it here. Food was the best I’ve had in Italy. Staff really welcoming and helpful in informing us what can be made vegan. Plenty of options from gnocchi to pizza. I had the gnocchi and my boyfriend a pizza. Then lemon fries to share. Beautiful setting under lemon trees.

A very good vegan pizza!

Donna Stella is the only pizzeria in Amalfi that does pizza with vegan cheese. I gave it a try and i liked it very much! You can choose basically any pizza and veganize it: they have vegan "mozzarella" cheese, vegan parmesan and vegan pesto of basil or pistachos. Recommended!!

Pros: Vegan cheese available, Good food, Amazing place

Cons: Expensive

Delicious pizzas & super friendly staff!

Loved our vegan pizzas, the staff was so lovely and helped us pick our meals from the menu 💗 menu has no spesifications about what’s vegan or not but just ask, they’ll help ☺️ we also ordered the lemon fries for starters and they were TO DIE FOR, also got vegan mayo to dip them in 🥰😍

Pros: Lovely staff!! Super helpful and friendly, Knowledge about veganism & allergies, Such a pretty place and a hidden gem

Cons: Vegan cheese has nuts

Delicious pizza and happy to accommodate to allergies (nuts in the vegan cheese)

The pizza was absolutely delicious and they were totally happy to customise pizzas to suit our dietary needs. My boyfriend is allergic to nuts and they took the allergy seriously, checking ingredients of the vegan mozzarella and which oil the vegetables were fried in. The vegan cheese had nuts in sadly but it was great that they were willing to make sure for us.

The location is beautiful in a lemon grove a bit off the Main Street in Amalfi so it feels like a hidden find.

I didn’t enquire about other vegan dishes like pasta because I assumed it would just be pizza that they could veganize, so maybe there would be more options if I did more digging.

Having loads of vegan options doesn’t matter though when the pizza is that good- super pillowy and crispy with fresh luscious toppings, perfect when paired with a local beer or an aperol spritz. Would recommend!

Pros: Delicious pizza, option of vegan cheese, They were helpful in explaining vegan options, Happy to adapt to make things vegan

Cons: Didn’t seem super varied for vegans , The vegan mozzarella is made with nuts

BEST VEGAN PIZZA EVER

Such friendly staff. The most delicious vegan pizza. If you are in amalfi, I cannot recommend this restaurant higher. I was eating with non-vegans and they said that they couldn’t tell the difference between the two pizzas. They also thought it was delicious
