We were staying about 20 minutes walk outside Modena centre and the restaurant was about another 20 minutes walk further out. We were a little surprised to find on our arrival that this was more a local cafe than a restaurant. As you enter, the first part of the pizzeria is just a plain cafe-style area but we were then ushered to a back area which seemed to be where 'diners ' were seated, as opposed to those who were perhaps just popping in for a quick pizza or to collect a takeaway. The area was, again, quite simple but was clean and comfortable. The pizzeria is known for doing super-thin bases on its pizzas so we tried two of those. I suppose that the obvious problem with a super thin base is that it will burn more easily and so it was with ours, with several sections of crust quite black. The other problem with a super thin crust is that where the topping sits, the base gets very soggy, and where there is little or no topping, it gets very crispy. Overall the pizza was ok but not particularly better than any number of other pizzerias in the area. The staff here were fine and we experienced no problems as other reviewers have stated.
