The Restaurant

Since 1978, the Il Pinguino Restaurant and Pizzeria It represents a point of reference for catering in Porlezza. Managed with passion by the Giordano family, originally from Tramonti (Salerno), the restaurant combines the tradition of true Neapolitan pizza at the Mediterranean cuisine, in a welcoming and spacious environment.
