Mangia & Bevi Pizzeria Napoletana

This cozy pizza restaurant serves oven-fired pies made with fresh ingredients that shine in every bite. The intimate dining atmosphere pairs perfectly with a delicious, chewy crust that’s crisped to perfection in a wood-fired oven. Just steps from the beach, it’s the ideal spot to enjoy authentic, flavorful pizza by the sea. 🍕Get here early! I am always somewhere and nowhere…follow me to see where I am not!

I ordered this $20 margarita meatball pizza with garlic and onion added. It is actually the most insulting thing I’ve ever received. They put chunks of raw garlic clove on my pizza.. and for the meatball topping that was an additional $3 I got one meatball cut in half. Actually a joke. Tried to call to speak to someone but it went to VM and that was full. Won’t be back. Don’t recommend.

Grazie for the warm welcome and the bright smiles that I received while I was having my dinner! The pizza dough is yummy and of course the tiramisu! I’m definitely coming back… Grazie

Ugh! Amazing! I am biased because I believe that Neapolitan pizza is the best food that exists, but this pizza is delicious. The food, the vibe, the people! The kind of place you go to and think, “wow I’m so glad this is here” and then you take everyone you know because you simply must share this joy with them! So lucky I was able to stop here on a work trip :)

It was fine. My wife had the calzone, i had the meat lovers. the crust/bread/dough was fantastic! Mine was burnt. I’m not angry. I get pizza ovens are notoriously finnicky and the crust was thin. the rest of the toppings were just fine. kinda bland

Absolutely amazing pizza! When folks said this was like eating pizza in Naples (Italy), they weren’t exaggerating. We had the meatballs as a starter and then three different pizzas which were all very flavorful. It’s not the biggest place, so on a busy night be prepared to wait. It’s worth it. That was my complaint about this amazing place: It’s quite small and easy to miss based on its location.

I will start by saying I only review restaurants that impress me. I will also say I know pizza. Having eaten in some of the highest rated pizzeria's in the country and didn't feel a need to give them a review. We walked in and were energetically welcomed by every employee in view. The dining area could use an upgrade in tables, chairs, and decor. As well as fountain soda rather than bottled. But if that's what keeps you from trying this place you will be missing out. I ordered the 16" meat lover's with red sauce. The crust was perfect, the red sauce delicious and a perfect balance to the cheese, meats, fresh basil and the extra virgin olive oil. I do not say this lightly, hands down the single best pizza I have ever had!! This place should be on everyone's list to try. You will not be disappointed!

Enjoyed a second stop at the Authentic Italian eatery and enjoyed another mouth watering lineup of appetizers & entrées- Appetizers: -Parmigiana di Melanzane -Insalata di Polpoe e' Patate -Caprese Insalata -Fresh Bread Entrées: -Rigattoni alla Bolognese -Zitti alla Genovese (sweet onions) -Spaghetti allo Scroglio Marinara pizza with cheese All were prepared and presented beautifully. Absolutely delicious but I would go light of the sauce for the pizza pie so not to make to dough mushy. For local's or Visitor’s who haven't tried, this location is a must! 5***** (added additional photos). If you are desiring true authentic Italian food, this is the place! This hidden gem has excellent personal service & a clean appealing atmosphere. There is a nice selection of imported Beverages and wines from Italy, The quality of food is as if your "Nona" prepared it herself. True authentic Italian food made with love. All of our prepared dishes were nicely displayed. Our dinning choices consisted of the fresh arugula & caprese salads, the parmigiana di melanzane eggplant appetizer, the riggitoni alla bolognese al dente', and the Quattro formaggi, Margherita and Funghi brick oven pizzas. Each dish had an amazing taste of home quality and would have you thinking of what to order on your next visit, haaa. The pizza's were a generous size for a 12", with a very light dough consisting of a ever so slight char and quality sauce & toppings. Delicious is an understatement. We topped it off with expresso and the homemade Tiramisu dessert. Couldn't snap a photo quick enough before the ladies dove in... now have a new goto restaurant in Cocoa Beach, Bravo!

The pizza is excellent Naples-style. This might be the best crust I've had in the US. I had a white pizza with sausage and broccoli rabe. Very tasty. Sausage seemed homemade. Daughter had Margherita, which she enjoyed. Vibe is simple and casual with an Italian flair. Service decent.

This is a Family owned and operated Pizza and Pasta whose main goal to make and serve the most authentic Neapolitan dishes in Cocoa Beach. Ambiance - 4 Stars - When you walked in, you are greeted right at the pizza making counter. If you want eat there, they have a dining area with about 16 tables, good for a single person or table of 6 or more. The dining area is small and artfully decorated w Italian items you find at home. A sturdy laundry string with different Italian T-Shirts hovering over you, a mural representing Italian life, and dishes representing Italy. The staff spoke Italian and you felt you were transported to someone's home who had a fun time bantering with each other. Server - 3.75 Stars - our server was polite and friendly. However she spoke very fast and had to repeat a couple of times for me on some recommendations which we happily choose from. Food: 4.5 - 5 Stars We elected not to order an Antipasta - Starters because of our heavy meal we had at Pita Paradise. So instead we ordered the following: An Insalta - Salad: Burrata 4.75 Stars - the Insalta consists of Arugula greens w freshly made Burrata cheese (fresh Italian cheese made from cow's milk with a mozzarella shell and a creamy, rich center), cherry tomatoes, salt n pepper and a balsamic glaze. The cheese itself is creamy and smooth. We like it however some people may not texturally. I prefer mine a little bit more salt but the Balsamic glaze was a perfect balance to the cheese itself. The arugula leafs have a slight peppery taste and the cherry tomatoes were a wonderful accompaniment to it. Pizza Rossa - Red Pizza - 4.75 Stars My wife ordered the Capricciosa option. It consists of tomato sauce, freshly made mozzarella, ham, mushrooms, black olives, artichoke, basil and Parmesan. Staying true to the Neapolitan style for the pizza crust, it is super thin at the center with a wonderful, crunchy, and chewy crust. The center can be difficult to pick up due to its thin crust and the wet ingredients used. She used her knife and fork to properly eat the pizza. The crust supposed to be floppy for a Neapolitan pizza. Only comment she made was she prefer to have some red pepper flakes to enhance the fresh ingredients. We mention it to our server but she forgot to bring it. Pasta - Spaghetti allo Scoglio - 5 Stars If you like seafood, this is the one for you. Even though pasta dishes can be "heavy" to the stomach, this dish was light and very flavorful from the seafood ingredients and very light tomato sauce. The dish consists of fresh shrimp, mussels, clams and calamari mixed w a light and clear tomato sauce and seasoning. This spaghetti noodles were cooked to perfection - Al dente' and were coated with the flavors of the sea, tomatoes, garlic, seasoning, wine and butter. It has hint of spice due to light coating of red pepper flakes and black pepper. I thought it needed salt and pepper but after I evenly mixed my ingredients together, it did not need anymore seasoning. The seafood ingredients came in qty of three - shrimp, mussels, calamari and clams. The mussels were the favorite due to its salty brine and large size. The shrimps were juicy and sweet, the calamari were chewy but had very little taste to it. The small clams were good and buttery. My only compliant is I wish I had more of the seafood. It was so good! One plate was great for my stomach cuz I would have eaten two plates of this pasta dish. Dolci- Desserts 4.75 Stars Tiramisu. The dessert came in a deep dish which can be shared by a couple or single if you don't want to share. The espresso coating was layered evenly on top of the mascarpone cream but the richness of the espresso was lost to us. It had good flavor but the depth of a dark roasted espresso was missing. The lady fingers were coated and dipped espresso Neapolitan style. Note: three things 1. When ordering a dessert, ask for an Espresso with the dessert because is not listed on the menu. 2. Also, all waters, sodas, wine or beers are bottled. Waters, Beers and wine are from Italy. 3. Salt and Pepper are not on the table. Certain cultures want you to taste their dishes before you add more seasoning. It is considered the "chef's trust". You can still ask the server after you have tasted the dish. Highly recommend the restaurant. As they say, "Mangia, Mangia"!

Surprisingly good, but not perfect, Naples Italian Restaurant with an authentic artsy decor in a high tourist Cocoa Beach area. Our appetizer was a tasty Tuna Fish Salad that had high quality tuna and an excellent usage of Balsam. We also had a brick oven pizza and two pastas. Unfortunately, they were completely out of bread as an appetizer or a side. Pizza was 5 stars, on the lighter side, a fold-over with a fluffy crunch and fresh vegetables. One of our pastas was very good, the other, severely undercooked, even though the meat sauce and the meatballs were rich and well sprinkled with parmesan cheese. As they did so much right, I would probably try this place again, but I left with a definite state of disappointment as to what it could have been.

It's okay... Our first time in this place, staff was short. I rated them a 4 but considered a 3. Food was okay. I didn't think the meat lovers pizza had enough meat on it. No tap water with ice, just cold bottled water for $2. The salad was small.

Excellent pizza. We thoroughly enjoyed the light & delicious flavor. It's tucked away in a commercial area but had great staff and authentic flavor. We will be back. Still thinking of it now. It was a week ago.

Food was amazing! We had to wait a little bit to be seated, but it was well worth the wait. Pizza options were plentiful and there was a lot on the menu if you aren't a pizza person. Only "complaint" was that we ordered an appetizer that didn't arrive until well after our pizza did.

So I make my own Margherita Napolitano at home using all ingredients from Italy. Even my water, my 00 flour, even my basil come from Italy. Locally two italian ladies make fresh mozzarella which use for my pizza, pasta, and sandwiches. Mangia E Bevi is the only place that can make a better pizza than I can at home. They are absolutely masters at crafting incredible pizza. They also make amazing pasta and sandwiches in the real Italian way. If you want the best go to cocoa beach and give them a try.

This place had amazing authentic Italian food!!! The appetizers are fabulous- burrata, octopus, eggplant- and definitely worth getting several to share. The gnocchi special tonight was fantastic. The sauce!!!! You could put it on a piece of cardboard and it would be delicious!! The truffle white pizza is so flavorful and a must get if you love truffles and mushrooms- just order it well done if you liken a crisper crust. Absolutely one of the best Italian meals ever!!!

Very unimpressive! Food quality was more like a Sbarro and service was worse. Members of our party were done with their pasta dishes before others got their burned pizza and undercooked calzone. No acknowledgement of our wait and dismissive of questions about when the food would arrive at the table. With that tiny of a pizza oven and staff who are clueless or aloof, I can't believe this place is open! Two hours and $22 wasted for burned pizza crust, thin soupy sauce and plastic tasting bottled water. Spare yourself

This got us close to the feeling of being in south of Italy! The ambiance felt like we were back in Italy. And the pizza? Yes one of the best we had since moving to Brevard County! Pizza is about the ingredients and the passion to create and serve a good pizza. And not much to write about it being how pizza is supposed to be. Very curious to try other pizza's too so we shall be back. And for fellow yelpers, when you check in you get a free espresso. Whats not to like about that?! (Just missed the limoncello) Friendly service. Free parking. Grazie Mille!

I've never been to Italy but I believe if I had the food it would taste like this. Small business run by Italians, who speak Italian, that's how authentic it is. We ordered the arugula salad, a calzone and spaghetti and meatballs. Wow! Everything was very good. Fresh ingredients make a difference. The spaghetti was one of the best. The service was great and the waitress was helpful with the menu. I highly recommend this place. Food was great

Everything was amazing!!' Authentic delicious-the best pizza ever with kind helpful service!! Love it here!!

Stopped by for an early dinner with friends. Wife had a 4 formaggi white pizza, I went for the spaghetti with seafood. Our partners in crime had Arugula and Caprese salads followed by a Margherita pizza. Everything was delicious, nice and simple. I had too many pizzas during the week so abstained, but they looked and tasted great. Next time!

So I live in Nee Jersey and we are sort of spoiled because we have good pizza around every turn. Sadly the rumor spread about Florida is that their pizza is limited to chain joints or is just poor quality. This place totally disproved that for us in a good way!!! This was some of the best pizza I have had anywhere including NJ. We were shocked! But the reviews are high for a reason. We ordered three different pies for our table and everyone loved them. In fact we were tempted to order a few more and take them back to the house we are staying at for lunch.

Very Italian and amazing. Service was fast and food was great. Don't go if you are wanting "Pizza Hut!!" Next time I am in CoCoa Beach I will definitely go back!!

Amazing amazing amazing and quite possibly the best pizza we've had outside of trips to Italy. Location is modest (we almost drove by) but one sniff inside the doors and you can smell the delights you are about to experience. Fresh and authentic and served with classic neopolitan curtness, the whole family loved their pizzas! The only downside for us is situational - we are vacationing and probably won't be back through cocoa beach. But never say never - and if we are back in the area we will find a way to get to M&B!

Very good white pizza with mushrooms needs a tad more salt but worth it. And loved the white tiramisu with raspberries (add more raspberries on top) that has no coffee. Yum! And sweet kind servers that wanted us to have a good experience.

Straight out of Italy ! The real deal here. Excellent food, fair prices, and excellent service. We will definitely come back and highly recommend.

Outstanding food, Diavola pizza you'd need to spend 12hrs flying to Napoli to get better.

Loved our dinner tonight. The antipasto misto was awesome. Short ribs and pasta, along with sausage and mushroom pizza. Fast, hot and delicious. Really cute place and super friendly server. A must try in Cocoa Beach.

I'm torn on recommending this place or not. I think the pizza itself was good and had good flavor. I did find the sauce a little on the sweet side and found myself looking for chili flakes to add. We also ordered the eggplant appetizer which was bitter and not good. We took one bite and didn't eat anymore. We also ordered the antipasto salad and felt $20 for what we got was not exactly on par with what we should've received. The crust on the pizza was delicious! You can taste the woodfired oven flavor without the crust being too well done. The pizza did have some slop, but I think overall it was a solid slice of pizza. The restaurant itself is adorable. A little small inside, so come early as it fills up fast. The service was fair. I wouldn't say exceptional and I wouldn't say poor, I would say fair. They don't serve water. Everything has to be purchased. They only have bottles of water. I don't care for that. Generally speaking it was a good experience, nothing too special though.

Amazing and authentic. Went for the pasta since we had a 20 mile race coming up, it was wonderful. Also went for the pizza and probably the the most authentic I've ever had, the sauce is amazing. Highly recommend

Great little place with a friendly staff. The white sauce Italian sausage pizza was great and also the sausage sandwich

Best pizza I have had outside of Italy. Authentic, flavorful, quick and reasonably priced. Gratzi!

This place is incredible! It reminds me of Italy and how good the pizza is. The customer service is great and they literally bake their pizza right in front of you! It is pretty satisfying to watch the pizza bake and cook. The ambiance is in a nice little area of Cocoa Beach. I would highly recommend this place for sure.

We were just looking for a late lunch and to get out of the Florida rain. Got lucky and found this lil gem. Split 3 pizzas for a family of 4 and still had extra to take home. Pizza is amazing perfect crust and char. Highly recommend will be back our next cruise

Awesome! And I'm not even a pizza person... I'm eating the crust. I walked in, he asked me what I like and he made me a pizza. I LOVE it. I didn't even look at the menu.

Quite possibly the best pizza and pasta we've ever had. Pizza was amazing. Pasta was cooked to a perfect al dente. My girlfriend ALWAYS brings home leftovers...today she didn't leave a crumb.

This is a must if you love good food! The servers and I mean all of them were absolutely amazing! The pizza was out of this world, crust sauce and toppings were delicious, I also had a arugula salad with fresh mozzarella and could have asked for anything more! Also the beer I had was full of flavor and smooth as could be

Best pizzas in the USA I ate since my trip in Italy years ago. Seating room is actually a decent size,no brainer go there even if you had to wait 10 minutes for a table.

Great place to eat a pizza and some Italian classics! The food was delicious with quality ingredients. They don't try to overcomplicate things... dishes are simple and delicious! Ordered pizza, meatballs and a pasta dish and they were all incredible! Service is great! They make you feel very welcome. The ambiance is cozy. Highly recommend this place.

"hands down" The Most Authentic Italian food ...everything is real real Italian! I am retired military and travelled to Italy many many times Venice, Rome, Naples, Florence, and served with Italian soldiers in Somalia **The Chefs are amazing! They are soooooo friendly! Food is so so so Italian REAL REAL soo good !

First, the menu on yelp is completely wrong. I ordered the Marinara pizza which was twice the price listed on the menu on yelp. The center of pizza had all ingredients-garlic was barely cooked (hard and full size clove), tomatoes small cherry tomatoes cut in half, 4 basil leaves and an added ingredient of anchovies (not appreciated by my palette). I tried to spread ingredients over pizza but center soggy (tomatoes) with a clump of oregano. Server was nice but no offer of red pepper, salt, pepper Parmesan cheese.... The crust and sauce were the best part but unfortunately I haven't found my pizza place here. Ambiance is very casual.

Great Napoli pizza! The sauce is a touch sweet, and the dough is soft, yet crispy and flavorful. We've gotten the Diavola twice now and it's our favorite! Plus it's a 12 inch pie for only $13. Not bad at all. We've also gotten the Paccheri Alla Genovese loved it! The pasta was al dente, creamy, and had the perfect amount of short rib meat. This is our second time getting takeout from them and we really enjoyed it. I've never been to Italy but I'd imagine this being as authentic as it gets.

Simply the best pizza pasta and meatballs you'll ever have! grazzziii! Best Neapolitan pizza I've ever had so fresh and fast!

Think.....Newya!!!!! So delicious and I love the wine! Casual and welcoming atmosphere, It feel like Naples on the beach!!!

THE BEST Pizza I've have in FL 100%! Visiting the area for a weekend getaway, from an hour and a half south, and had Pizza the way it should be! Wish we were closer for this place!

Consistently delicious and great value. The dining room can be packed and noisy, so we prefer quiet early evenings here. The table wine is great. The pizza dough is outstanding. There are quality toppings. The staff are helpful, patient and friendly. One of the treasures that keep us coming back year after year to Cocoa Beach!

Delicious, very thin authentic Italian style pizza. Very fresh, high quality ingredients. Casual ambiance. Very friendly, attentive service from Tessa. Beverages are only in bottles.

Amazing food, amazing service! Truly authentic! This place reminded me of when I lived in Italy

I had really high hopes after I walked in and heard the two dudes making the pizzas (presumably brothers) speaking Italian, this place must be legit. They even corrected me on the pronunciation of the Italian menu items - now these are men who care about their craft! I tried three pizzas, the Funghi (1 Star), Primavera (5 stars), and Salsiccia e Friarielli (5 Stars). Choose your pizza wisely! The Funghi was pretty basic, and not executed well. The crust was so thin in the middle it basically liquified under the moisture of the sauce and toppings. The other two pizzas were loaded with toppings, and were delightfully fresh and balanced.

Absolutely the best pizza in Brevard County. Sandwiches are also great and service is always quick

Love this pizza! Reminded me of pizza we had in Naples, Italy. Highly recommend. Service was great too!

The best pizza In the area. Owners Are From Italian and thy Use fresh ingredients to Create delicious pizzas.

This is THE BEST pizza I have EVER eaten in my whole life! Even after eating napolitana pizza in Italy, I still prefer their recipe! I am a "frequent flyer" for sure!

If I could I would leave a one word review and it should be enough to tel you just how great a place this is... but Yelp won't let me. Authentic. That is all I should have to write. But I won't, I'll divulge more. This is an authentic Napolese pizza place that you would find walking the street in Naples (Italy people, definitely not Florida). Ingredients are simple, the flavors are incredible and everything is very fresh! This is not your traditional American pizza place that slaps on as much nitrate infused meat and processed cheese. You will get pizza with a minimalist approach that will leave you wanting to order one of each! Go ahead and do it! Order one of each! Right now I wish we had, because I want to try all of them!

Great service and the food was excellent. Probably the best pizza I've ever had. The sauce had a sweet note to it and the crust was crispy.

Once again we visited Mangia & Bevi in CoCo Beach and believe me it did not disappoint! After our visit last year we made a special trip to return again and are happy we did. We had homemade pasta, homemade egg plant and delicious Italian wine and it was delicious! The ambiance and atmosphere made us feel very welcome. The chef came out to our table and told us about making the pasta this morning. We know Italian food and highly recommend Mangia and Bevi. Make sure you try this special restaurant.

Eyy Mamma Mia! Chefs kiss. Seriously good Neapolitan style pizza cooked in their giant wood burning oven. Italian speaking staff was friendly and helpful. If you happen to visit while the pizza guy "Marco!" is working, you're in for a treat. We had the capricciosa and diavola to-go and I wish we had bought 2 more. Delicious. Good prices for the quality you're receiving. Definitely the go to pizza spot in the area. Will return.
