I’m not sure that it’s the most exciting name for a pizzeria and perhaps it doesn’t look overly decadent from the outside, but it’s very well reviewed online and it seemed a good option for my evening meal. It’s handy being in Italy as I can get pizza and it is then evident that I’m eating the local food, a bit of cultural immersion and all that.
The menu board and there are pizzas sold by the slice, or greedy people such as myself can just buy a whole one. The service here was friendly and engaging, with a number of customers passing through so they seemed popular.
I ordered the diavolo pizza and then thought that I might as well get a beer with it. Firstly, the beer was a Ceres Strong Ale which was malty and robust. Secondly, the main event, the pizza which was light and fluffy, with plenty of toppings and a depth of flavour. It felt simple, which is how I think pizzas should be.
There was a small area inside to eat-in, which seemed the most appropriate to me. The restaurant was clean and tidy, with the atmosphere feeling inviting and welcoming. All really rather lovely and definitely recommended. Unfussy food, I like that and the price was moderate for the centre of Venice, the beer and pizza cost just over £10 which I thought was very reasonable.
