The pizza was absolutely delicious, especially the Prosciutto and Porcini varieties. We quickly finished both of them. The restaurant is located away from the main street, which adds to its charm. The service was exceptional. We will definitely be returning!

Popped in for a mid week easy meal and ended up with beautiful crispy thin based pizzas with good amount of great quality toppings. Highly recommend the Rustica and Gamberi. The Rustica’s caramelised leeks and rich pancetta went beautifully and the Gamberi good amount of fresh prawns. Justifies the $20 a pop price tag.

Both, despite being too extremes, were excellent. Margarita had a gorgeous cheese, balanced carefully with the tomato sauce. I was dubious about the flavours on the zucca, but the leeks were soft and worked beautifully with the pumpkin and feta the cheese again being the hero. <br/ <br/ At over $20 each the pizzas certainly aren't the most affordable but the quality makes it worth it. I could have taken them apart and eaten every ingredient on their own and still loved them! Only thing stopping it getting 5 out of 5 was my pizza was very slightly burnt so some of the crust was very crispy. <br/ <br/ I'll update this review accordingly as I continue my pizza journey.
