“ It’s Friday night, 10:30pm and everything is closed ..That’s where the magic begins to happen..this hole in the wall pizzeria was open and wahlaaah! The taste in the slice made all of my problems go away and all I could think of was having another slice. Both the gentleman and the lady spoke English well enough for a foreigner to understand and the lady was extremely careful with serving and packing the pizza slices. If you’re tired of the traditional Italian pizza where ( let’s be honest) it all begins to tastes the same, give this place a try!! ”
“ The best pizza that I had in Venice by far! It blows the chain pizza take aways in Venice out of the water. The shop was packed with tourists and locals the two times I went there. There’s limited seating so it’s mainly a place for take away back at the hotel or eating outside in the square. The individual slices of pizza are large, and they also offer a medium and large pizza sizes. I had the diavalo pizza and it was delicious. ”
“ We were lucky to stumble upon this restaurant while wandering through the narrow streets of Venice, and it turned out to be amazing! We ordered two different flavours, and the portions were huge—one serving was more than enough for my wife and child! The taste was absolutely incredible, and I finally understood how delicious an authentic Italian pizza base can be. And the price? Unbelievably cheap—only 3.50 per slice. Highly recommended! ”
“ The lady at the reception was too sweet to recommend us the vegetarian options and they are too yum. At that price point, I would say no other shops provide you that taste and quantity. A slice costs you just 3 euros here. ”
“ The pizza is very good. I've been traveling all over Italy and Sicily and I've probably had 30 pizzas. This is definitely pretty good and also the chef did a wondrous job communicating with us ”
