El Bistrot Italiano is an Italian trattoria by Playa de San Juan in Alicante, known for Roman-style pinsa — a thicker crust that is crispy yet light. The owner is Luca, an Italian; one visitor writes that he came straight out to greet them and was very knowledgeable about Italian food. Besides pinsa, reviews mention homemade pasta such as carbonara and ravioli, cheek lasagne, a cold cuts board and desserts like tiramisu and rum baba. Visitors praise the cosy dining room and friendly staff, and one review notes that it is not loud and that there is a children's menu. Gluten-free options also come up in reviews, and one of the reviews highlighted by Google advises booking a table in advance, as the place is small.
Guest favourites: the mortadella pinsa, paccheri alla norma and the Italian charcuterie and cheese board; finish with a shot of meloncello.
