At Alforno Ristorante Italiano we are not just another Italian cuisine restaurant. What makes us stand apart from the rest is our authentic and honest approach to Italian cuisine. We have a diverse menu with a myriad of traditional Italian pizzas, pastas and more as well as some truly uniquely delectable dishes, such as the oh-so decadent “Andreas” which features pomodoro, mozzarella, prawns, calamari, mussels, garlic and fresh chilli! I mean oh my, if you’re a lover of seafood and pizza then this is a taste bud goldmine! And that’s just one of our gourmet pizzas!
All the traditional players are here too, from margheritas to reginas to Hawaiian for pineapple on pizza lovers! We believe in a perfect cheese to base ratio. Not too much and not too little.
Of course, this isn’t just a pizzeria, our pastas are some of the most wholesome around. From el classico Spaghetti Bolognese to our Linguine Salmone, we have a pasta for everyone.
Situated alongside the cobblestone street behind Cape Quarter, our charming little place also has great ambiance thanks to the frenetic energy of De Waterkant. You can sip on red wine while listening to live music on certain evenings with the beautiful mountain playing sentinel in the background.
And to top it all off our humble establishment also has some cool daily specials. R75 gets you a pizza or pasta plus a glass of red or white vino. We also have a great breakfast special, R40 gets you 2 eggs, bacon, beans, toast with your choice of tea or coffee!
Alforno is open Monday to Saturday from 09:00 to 22:30.
