Lume Pizzeria

Pizza is outstanding, typical Napolitan style with great ingredients and dough. We had pizzas, lasagna, Bruscheta, Parmigiana and Salad. Lasagna and Parmigiana were a bit dry but tasty, and Bruschetta was very tasty. Recommended for a good Napolitan pizza, but average otherwise. Nicely priced.

Kitchen closes 30 minutes before closing - we came at 9.50pm and staff were kind enough to let us dine. We ordered the tuna pizza with tomato base, and truffle pizza. Both were delicious - toppings were very generous and crust was excellent.

I’ve been coming back to this Italian restaurant multiple times, and for a good reason! Their Neapolitan pizza is simply outstanding, with a perfect crust and rich flavors. The lasagna is just as incredible—authentic, flavorful, and made with top-quality ingredients. One of the highlights for me was the red Prosecco—an absolute must-try! The ingredients they use are top-notch, and you can truly taste the difference. On top of that, the service is impeccable—friendly, attentive, and always welcoming. The ambiance is fantastic, making every visit a memorable experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Italian food!

The location is pretty far away from Funchal. The restaurant is located in an urban area. The service was responsive but there werent many customers. In the reservation they mentioned that the reservation is only valid with a 10 Minutes delay. But it was not fully booked. The food was good the ingridients fresh but it was not that special.

⚠️ Toilet doors have a significant drop creating a fall hazard, particularly dangerous when exiting. 🌿 The "homemade fresh basil pesto" used as pizza base tasted overly salty and resembled commercial jarred pesto (Barilla-like). I had to drink a ton of water and couldn't finish the pizza because of the saltiness. However, basil pesto used as a topping on other pizzas was excellent. Pizza Diavola was quite good and likely remains the best pizza available in Madeira.

My partner had a tasty bruschetta ai funghi for starters which was fully vegan. Then for mains we had a marinara and truffle pizza with ‘Veganarias’ vegan mozzarella. You can add normal mozzarella instead but this specific one is made in Madeira and is local. Food was fantastic.

Pizzeria LUME, located just outside Funchal’s busy centre, offers excellent authentic Neapolitan pizzas cooked in a traditional wood-fired oven. The dough is perfectly rustic with fresh, high-quality toppings, delivering fantastic flavor at great value for money. While parking can be a bit challenging due to its location, the peaceful setting away from the hustle and bustle makes it worth the visit. A standout bonus is the availability of Sardinian Ichnusa beer, a rare find that pairs wonderfully with the pizzas. Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere complete the experience, making LUME a top choice for pizza lovers in Madeira.

One of the best pizzas I’ve ever eaten. (And I’ve eaten a lot) it’s a true Neapolitan pizza and they are absolutely delicious. Also the tiramisu was great and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. We would love to come back. We only can praise this restaurant for making great food. Also the interior is very nice. Clean but has a nice vibe.
