  • "Their pizza is literally so good, have the best gluten free options."
  • "Enjoyed a really good pizza at this restaurant."
  • "The pizzas were amazing (we got an aubergine parm and a salsiccia e friarielli) and it did feel like being in an Italian pizzeria, in Italy."
  • "The single best pizza I’ve had since I left Milan in 1996."

Cons:

  • "Although have previously had the simple green salad that was just the leaves of a small romaine lettuce, a bit cheeky at £3.50."

  • "Last time I went there, the pizza was tiny and barely any chocolate delight."
  • "Seems that people like them but I did not. All around pizza is empty with the meat and veg only in the middle."
  • "Pizza was ok (though the dough was pretty burnt)."
  • "There was a bad smell when I visited - a bit like they hadn't taken the bins out, and a fly started crawling over my pizza as I was eating it, so I was a bit concerned about hygiene in the place."
