The pizza was the best pizza i’ve ever tasted. How i wish we ordered more that night but me and my husband wasn’t that hungry so we just plan to grab a few bites before we head to our hotel and end the night. The service was also great, it wasnt that busy when we came since they are almost closing time. The tiramisu wasn’t the best, the portion was too small for $14 to be honest i think that one was overpriced.

I had a great experience at Polina pizzaria. The pizza was delicious — fresh ingredients, generous toppings, and a perfectly cooked mashroom was great with all the other toppings. The salad was also outstanding: very fresh, well-seasoned, and made with high-quality ingredients. You can really taste the care they put into preparing it. The staff were friendly and the service was quick. The place is clean, cozy, and perfect for a night out experiance. Highly recommend .🍕🥗

⸻ The restaurant we originally wanted to go to was fully booked — probably because of Thanksgiving, there were tourists everywhere! We ended up finding this place by chance, and it turned out to be such a hidden gem. The seafood pasta was amazing — the shrimp were big and juicy, and the clams were really fresh. I especially loved their duck leg — tender, flavorful, and nothing like the dry ones I’ve had elsewhere. The staff were also super friendly and welcoming. So grateful we found this restaurant — it made our evening so enjoyable and memorable!

We chose this Italian restaurant for dinner on two consecutive evenings. On the first night, we ordered the La Margarita pizza, Coscia d’anatra confit (duck leg), and iced tea. The pizza was authentic and nicely cooked, and the duck leg was perfectly done, just as we requested — served with fries, and I really loved it. However, we didn’t enjoy the iced tea. During our second visit, I wasn’t very hungry, so we went with the Spaghetti alla Napoletana and a crème brûlée. The pasta was good, especially the sauce — simple and flavorful. The crème brûlée was the best we had on our trip. We had reserved a table for our first visit, but on the second evening, we considered getting takeout. Unfortunately, we were told they weren’t doing takeout that evening, and we ended up waiting around 20–30 minutes for a table. The staff member managing the front that night seemed a bit rude, and we noticed several customers leaving after being turned away or kept waiting. Thankfully, a staff member from the previous evening eventually recognized us and helped us get seated. That really saved the experience for us. So overall — the food is good, and I’d recommend this place, but make sure to book a table in advance!
