Regarded as one of the best pizza in Florianópolis, Basílico is a popular restaurant in Canto da Lagoa that offers the rounds prepared with good quality ingredients, following the tradition of pizzarias in São Paulo city. The menu presents the basic toppings as well as its own creations, like the popular Caprese - thick tomatoes slices topped with buffalo mozzarella, basil leaves and black olives pesto.
The ambiance is good, with low-key lighting and sparse decoration. There is a mix of brick and wood so it gives a general cozy feeling. There are tables inside the house and also in the pleasant covered yard.
The table service is formal and the servers are ready to get the pizza slices in your plate.
Prices are quite expensive if compared to the average pizzarias. A large pizza costs around R$ 50 and it has 8 slices.
I wanted to eat a good pizza with my wife and my choice was Basílico this time. To start, I tried a Primo Basílio salad - arugula leaves topped with large tomatos slices, pieces of artichoke heart, dried tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella. After that I had a large pizza with 3 different toppings. The crust was thin and the flavours were delicious.
In overall pizzaria Basílico is a great place to share with friends and family or to take your partner for a good dine out. It delivers an excellent and authentic Brazilian pizza but there are also some other good options in Floripa that can do the same for less price.

Florianópolis hasn’t a strong tradition on Pizza, but there are some good Pizzarias in the city offering a delicious round.
Nave Mãe ( translated mothership ) is an interesting place because it has a creative way of selling its Pizza made with healthy ingredients. The house, located in Canto da Lagoa, has a nice and comfortable interior. It also has different names for its pizzas like Saturn, Pluto, Orion, Andromeda and many other suggesting space theme. The special Pizzas are made with wholemeal flour and my favorite one is called Sputinik ( leek, tomato sauce, cheese and oregano ),but if you want there are traditional types available. Prices vary between R$25 and R$ 35 for a medium-sized pizza or a little bit more for a larger one.
For entertainment you can request Wooden Brain Teaser puzzles and ocasionally there are acoustic live music at night.
The table service is good and order waiting time is about 20-30 minutes, of course depending on the number of customers in one given night.

In overall, Nave Mãe is a popular place an a good choice for Pizza lovers.
