Pizzeria Amore Mio

Those dialed into the Maylands dining scene know to push past the modest Guildford Road storefront—what looks like a tiny takeaway joint explodes into a sprawling, high-energy dining room with character renovations and a quirky glass floor feature. Wholly Italian-owned and operated, this spot radiates serious Nonna energy. The kitchen slings out piatti that have die-hard carb purists sitting down for lunch and immediately bagging pizza takeout for dinner. Kick off with sprawling antipasti boards and impossibly fluffy, oven-warm focaccia. The pasta is formidable—think Spaghetti alla Marinara crowned with mammoth wild WA king prawns, or Ravioli Sardi bursting with creamy potato. But the traditional pizzas are the main event. Snag the Hot Sardegna, loaded with fiery pork sausage, and soak up the electric, convivial atmosphere. Finish with a textbook tiramisù—perfetto.
