Food Quality

Pros:

• "This was a magnificent pizza with an outstanding topping."
• "Excellent pizzas, just how you get them in Napoli."
• "Really good pizza in traditional Italian style, thin, good quality toppings."
• "Delicious pizza inspired by Campania, considerable effort had gone in to sourcing great ingredients and they get baked in a stone oven."

• "The pizza is delicious and the ingredients are super fresh."

Cons:

• "The toppings were not distributed across the pizza but on one slice there was lamb sausage and not the chorizo I ordered!"

• "Super soggy if you order buffalo mozzarella as they don’t drain it."
