“ What an incredible dining experience! From start to finish, everything was perfect and a big part of that was thanks to our amazing waiter/host, Tommaso. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. My friend was looking for a delicious pork-free pizza, and Tommaso recommended the Capri and it did not disappoint! Full of flavor and beautifully balanced. I had La Duchessa, and wooow hands down the best pizza I’ve ever had. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the crust was just right, and every bite was packed with taste. Tommaso also helped me choose a red wine to go with my pizza, and the ETNA ROSSO DOC ALTA MORA was spot on. Smooth, rich, and complemented the food perfectly. We started with the SFINCIONE BIANCO, and it was a delicious introduction to the meal . Warm, comforting, and full of Sicilian flavor. This place is a gem. Can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic, quality Italian food with outstanding service! ”

“ What an amazing pizza experience! The dough was super light, was as if you would bite a cloud We took 3 different pizza types and all of them were super tasty, made with fresh ingredients of good quality. The staff is very attentive to details. One thing I appreciated personally is the question for allergies before taking order. ”
