Reviews
A true Italian gem! The Neapolitan-style pizza is delicious - you can tell they have a proper pizza oven because the crust is perfection (and in fact they don’t hide it - it is standing in the open kitchen). Beyond the pizza, the lasagna was OK too (but not the best I had so far), and the selection of both hot and cold appetizers is really creative and worth exploring. Don’t skip the dessert menu either. The atmosphere is wonderful. It’s a bit snug, especially when the garden isn’t open yet, but I don’t see that as a downside at all. It actually adds to that vibrant, bustling energy you find in authentic local trattorias in Italy. To top it off, the staff is incredibly friendly, and they have a great selection of wines and cocktails. Pro tip: The place is intimate and fills up fast, so I’d highly recommend booking a table for the evening!
