Huge and delicious pizzas with fine dough and well stuffed! The best on the Costa Brava. With the option to make half of one taste, and half of another. The calzone and the cheese are our favorites. Excellent treatment and value for money!

An essential in empuriabrava! From the outside the place does not seem much, but the pizzas are the best we have ever tried. The dough is fine but not at all soft or pasty, it puts a lot of ingredients and the result is fabulous. Ideal for kids and adults!!

Fantastic experience:
We go there every year to eat their delicious pizzas. Thin paste, with exquisite flavors. A little advice to avoid having to wait too long because their success brings back a lot of customers ordered in advance

Fantastic experience:
Small restaurant which offers to taste the pizzas on the spot but also and especially to take them away to devour them at home. Wide choice of pizzas, fast, friendly service (and in French) and more than moderate prices in view of the quality of the pizzas. They are really excellent: fine dough and ingredients at the top. Without forgetting the quantity, the pizzas are really gigantic! In short, an address more than recommended.

Fantastic experience:
The attention of the excellent staff and the pizza came out very quickly. They are large pizzas but with a very thin and crunchy crust. In my case, I have taken a take away pizza: average of 4 cheeses with half of the pizza of the day to try (Bresaola) and both were very good. Excellent price quality.

Fantastic experience:
Very good pizza, the dough is different from ours, it is much thinner and can be eaten very easily. Large size, good and on top of that, they speak several languages! However, you need to be patient during peak hours, it is better to order in advance ... I recommend without hesitation.

Fantastic experience:
These are the best pizzas around! Excellent pizzeria! I always come back here to buy pizzas because they are excellent !!! The pizzerias "El cau de la iguana" has a green window with an iguana, which does not go incognito and is located at the entrance of Empuria. Pleasant welcome, hydroalcoholic gel available, marked distancing on the ground and wearing a mask. This pizzeria offers different pizzas and offers the possibility to eat on site (inside or on the terrace outside) or to take away. The prices are correct, around 10 € a pizza. The pizzas are always very good. They are large, their dough is thin, and the filling is good. A pizza can make two people if you put a salad on the side :) The employees are very friendly! They speak French and they even offer to cut the pizza. There is also the possibility of dividing the pizza into two kinds (for example half tuna and the other half ham). There isn't a lot of waiting around 7 p.m. but it's always busy. So pay attention to the schedules, you have to come early or order in advance so as not to wait too long. I therefore advise you to come and buy your pizzas here !!!

Fantastic experience:
Everything simplified. They sell each pizza in a unique size. Prices between 10-11 Euros for pizza. I think it is one of the best pizzas I have ever eaten. The flavors very well combined without any of them saturating the others. Distinctively, these pizzas are very very thin (thin) and with a very soft dough. The edges are also thin but crispy and very toasted. You can order two different flavors on one pizza. It is especially to go. The place is too small to stay to eat. Depending on what day you may have to wait a long time for pizza. A lot of people usually go. Now with the limitations due to the coronavirus it is not possible to use its facilities to sit down to eat, nor the terrace. Sale is for take-out only. You must go personally. They do not have a phone or delivery service. It is very traditional among the locals or tourists who follow the format, grab pizzas in the Cau de la iguana and take them to the beach and eat there while having a nice time with friends. The owner himself works in the business. It all looks like a family business. They are very nice.

Fantastic experience:
We came for the first time empuriabrava. Let's search for google pizzerias and this is the best valuation I had. We were approving and now I understand why such a good rating. You have to go to the bar and ask. They give you as a card that when it sounds like your pizza is ready and you can go pick it up, I see it super original !! It took 6 minutes only to make 2 pizzas. Fast service and the supermaja girl !!! If I return to empuriabrava I will see you again!

Fantastic experience:
Enjoyed this really special pizza again today. Our tip: it is best to eat or pick up pizza at a time between regular meals. Then she is just always perfect and not a bit black, which happens in times of stress. We do not like that because it changes the very thin pizza too much.
