“We have had breakfast and dinner at Pulia. This is a simple menu and we were told the idea is to eat like you are actually in Italy. Breakfast is NOT bacon and eggs or waffles.
Breakfast is healthier and lighter than that, offering avocado salad on toast, a light bagel sandwich, fresh fruit, etc.
Do not expect big plates and tons of food. Expect a healthy portion done right. Each food item offers a perfect bite.
The tomato salad (a special) was dressed just enough to accentuate the salad. The pizza ingredients were a harmony of accents. Everything is truly delicious. We are so glad this gem landed in Ventnor!
Great margharita pizza , Caesar salad, and prosciutto and melon. Highly recommended.
