We did not have a reservation and they did not have the ability to seat us, so we took it to go. There were some available tables, but they were being held for the reservations, which makes perfect sense. I highly recommend that you make a reservation prior to going as pizza is best enjoyed hot and fresh. Putting aside the fact that it was takeout and cold by the time we got home, it was still a very enjoyable pizza and we would return for a seated dinner.
Very nice, tasty food, helpful staff. We highly recommend calling before going during the week, because if there are no reservations, they understandably won't open. Right under the walls of the historic center, super-accessible parking, and a beautiful view. Just steps from the Town Hall and the small theater. Excellent vegetarian options, too.
It's a pizza restaurant that's usually very busy on Saturdays and in the summer when they set up outdoor seating. We went on a Sunday evening and were alone, but I have to say it was very good; we sat in front of the stove and had a great time. The pizzas are very light and delicious, and the potatoes and Ascoli olives were excellent. For water and beers, without dessert, and coffee, we spent about 14 euros each. Excellent, I'd say.
Discovered by chance on the road during a day trip, the interior space itself has potential that, in my opinion, isn't fully realized during the winter. In the summer, I think it's more enjoyable in the square outside, and the village of Monte Roberto, with its 13th-century castle walls, is worth admiring and visiting. The menu is simple (the paper version is basic, and definitely needs a graphic overhaul, but that's my professional bias) and the cuisine showcases local products and traditions. The pizza is delicious and well-seasoned. The service is friendly and attentive, and the prices are reasonable. The rosemary crescia was truly excellent, while the platter I ordered had high expectations that weren't entirely met. Overall, a pleasant evening spent with food that wasn't entirely praiseworthy, but certainly not infamous.
A pizzeria with several pros and cons. The food is really good, the pizzas were fantastic as were the starters The external and internal environment is delightfully rustic in the heart of the village. The outside tables were partly dimly lit and you needed a phone flashlight to read the menu. The service is decidedly distracted and poor. The staff is young and not professionally trained. There were 6 of us and they brought us 4 plates for starters. The same waiter tells us that he would have brought us the other two... Never seen again. We see that on the other tables there was a battery-powered lamp to illuminate the table and we ask for it too and he replies that they didn't have enough for all the tables and that he would bring it to us as soon as possible... Never seen again. Anyway it deserves a chance
