Il Mare
Il Mare states plainly on its own site that it is Vienna's first pizzeria, opened in 1975 by Pasquale Tavella; the business has stayed in the same family for fifty years, with his daughter Grazia Tavella-Sevilmis taking over operations in 2016 and the restaurant marking its fiftieth anniversary in 2025. It still bakes wood-fired pizza alongside classic Italian dishes and Bistecca alla Fiorentina.
