About San Marino Cafe Ristorante

Head to San Marino Cafe Ristorante for monster schnitzels and wood-fired pizzas backed by glowing hearthside flames. Seaford regulars come specifically for the giant parmys—crisp crumb, tender chicken or veal, and heaped toppings spanning from meat cravers to rich napolitana sauce. The menu stretches wide enough to cover garlic bread starters, creamy lobster mornay, folded calzones, and casual breakfasts. Serving sizes easily feed two, and staff gladly pack takeaway containers for the rest before you finish your Amaretto sour.

  • Monster Schnitzels: Oversized chicken and veal cuts arrive with towering toppings and generous takeaway boxes ready for leftovers.
  • Visible Wood-Fired Hearth: Diners can watch live flames lick the oven hearth as crisp-crusted pizzas and calzones bake.
  • Expansive Multi-Category Menu: A comprehensive lineup spanning morning breakfast, pasta, seafood platters, and chef specials ensures every craving is met.

  • Crisp Crusts and Fresh Wood-Fired Baking

    Pizzas and folded calzones emerge hot from the oven with a crunchy crust, well-seasoned dough, and authentic Italian flavors.

    the dough was glorious, soft but slightly crunchy on the outside and so nicely seasoned, and fresh ingredients!

  • Lobster Mornay

    Ended up getting one of the chef’s specials, Lobster mornay with chunky sweet potato chips. This meal was one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time, the sauce was smooth, creamy and full of soo much flavour.
