We started with the supplì, each one better than the last: from the classic to the cacio e pepe, all crispy on the outside and filled with a handmade, authentic, and flavorful filling. You can taste the attention to detail and preparation.
The pizzas? Amazing. The stuffed ones in particular: crispy on the outside, yet light and fragrant, with well-balanced toppings and original, never boring flavors. A perfect balance between tradition and creativity.
All this in a welcoming and refined environment, with a positive energy that permeates the moment you enter. It's great to see young people with a desire to do things, enthusiasm, and—rarely—golden hands.
There really should be more places like this. I'll definitely be back!
The pizza was a confirmation: light, well-leavened dough, easy to digest, and generous but well-balanced toppings.
I highly recommend this place, and I'll definitely be back.
You deserve a solid 5 stars because I love the passion and commitment you put into it. Well done, and I recommend it.
