Cons:

• "Good pizza with nice fresh ingredients, however was a bit sloppy and not as crispy on the bottom as I would have thought."
• "The Maradona with salami, beef steak, and pork sausage was a bit watery and made the dough soggy in the middle."
• "Sadly the pizza delivered had a very undercooked slimy base making it pretty much inedible."
• "Pizza was watery, soggy and flavourless."
• "Worst calzone I have ever had. Calzone should be closed, mine only had the edges turned in with the contents only half cooked."
• "Pizzas were burnt, and the base tomato sauce watery. We let the manager know and he did absolutely nothing about it, not even apologise."
• "Pizzas were way too liquid, toppings just slide off, you almost need a spoon to eat comfortably."
• "Both my boyfriend & my friend have had food poisoning from here once... they need to make sure the quality of their meat and fish is of higher standard."

Service and Atmosphere

Pros:

• "Everything about it was lovely, the food, the staff and the atmosphere."

• "The service is fun and friendly. It’s a very relaxed, casual, authentic place and great value for money."
• "Absolutely the BEST pizza in town... Love the interior, with a big nod to Diego and Napoli."
• "A fantastic little restaurant, with great food at reasonable prices... The furnishings are basic, but pleasant."
• "Terrific pizza and a really relaxed, friendly atmosphere."
• "Hands down THE BEST pizza in Edinburgh - the dough is classic Naples style; thin at the centre and fluffy around the edges."

Cons:

• "The service was a bit lacking. The girls were nice just inattentive. They were more interested in chatting to each other."
• "Service was quick and the Pizzas were delicious. One point deducted for the Tiramisu which was unfortunately not great, very flat and weirdly textured."
• "The starters were amazing, huge portions as well. I can't remember the name of what I had, but they were these 2 big donut like pizzas for a starter, definitely a great start to a heavy evening of eating."
• "Really disappointed with this place, big pizza fan, been wanting to go for a long time and finally got the chance, won’t be going back though!"
• "Pizza looked lovely however when eating it, it was watery, soggy and flavourless."
• "I wanted to give this place a decent rating but I’ve been twice now and I can’t help but feel the food is quite bland!!"
• "Greasy food and wet pizza... fried sea food starter was toooooo greasy."
• "Went in to eat, was met by this guy (or the gatekeeper)... So if you don't book, you're not worth their time."
