Probably as close to Italy as we could get in terms of food flavour! Excellent pizza: we ordered three different kinds and every one of them was cooked to perfection and tasted so good! Tiramisu: mamma Mia, it’s heavenly! And pistachio gelato tasted like it was made by someone with 100+ years of experience: from the consistency of gelato to roasted pistachios in every spoon, the whole thing was amazing! To top off the experience, our server was very friendly and knowledgeable, gave us great recommendations and made our experience even more memorable. And the owner of the restaurant was great as well: dedicated to his job, hard-working, with passion for food, which you can definitely taste in his recipes. Highly recommend to everyone.

Great food and great service. Haven’t had pizza this good in YEARS. Breakfast calzone is also amazing, super large portions and great for the price too! Will be back!

I first visited this place two years ago with my work colleagues. Among them were Italians, and they told me that this is a real Italian pizzeria and that the owner makes the pizza himself. This year I came back with my son. We pay attention to food quality, and since I work in construction with Yunus Construction Global Ltd, we often travel across different areas of the city and check out various places to eat. We don’t eat pork, so we carefully looked through the menu and noticed they had a lamb pizza. We decided to try it. It turned out to be an excellent choice. The lamb pizza was incredibly delicious: ultra-thin crust, a generous amount of meat and cheese, and a very balanced flavor. We even felt a light buttery aroma that added a special depth to the taste. Thank you very much to this restaurant for making such tasty, high-quality, ultra-thin pizza. We wish you continued success and prosperity.

Delicious hand made noodles and fresh pizza. The app was so convenient to order from! Dishes are very large and can easily be shared to feed 2 people. The pasta didn't taste as much like the sea as I would have liked but still had a great savory taste with very tender scallops, shrimp and clams. The pizza was perfect full bodied cheese and awesome pesto, brings me back to what I had in Italy. The calzone had great marinara sauce though the sausage pieces I think was slightly big for it would have preferred loose sausage bits as opposed to full sausage pieces.

So we order takeout we travel from the USA the food was delicious. My wife ordered the seafood, scallop mussels and shrimp with vegetables and we order the fresh bread. Oh my God the bread is delicious and then we ordered a margarita pizza wow wow wow the fresh Parmesan cheese amazing out of this world and the garlic sauce that was included was to die for highly recommended place. I mean we traveled six hours to experiences. They were so personable super friendly. We saw the owner/cook. He was sweet as pie. Highly recommend.
