Pizzeria e personale molto accoglienti. Nonostante alle ore 21.00 ci fosse già il pienone(sabato sera) i camerieri sono stati efficientissimi...patatine e pizza arrivate in tempi record. Buona la scelta delle materie prime,ottimo l'impasto della pizza tirata sottile al punto giusto...il tutto contornato da una superba birra rossa alla spina che purtroppo non sempre riesco a trovare nelle pizzerie. Ci ritorneremo volentieri per assaporare i panini molto invitanti. E poi i gelati per i più piccini sono stati un tuffo nel passato...tanti pupazzetti contenenti vari gusti...la mia bimba ne è stata entusiasta. La struttura è studiata in modo da ridurre al minimo le barriere architettoniche,quindi facilmente accessibile dai clienti con problemi di deambulazione. Caldamente consigliata.

Ho avuto il piacere di festeggiare un compleanno presso questa straordinaria pizzeria/ristorante e sono rimasto estremamente colpito dalla loro cordialità e disponibilità. I titolari si sono dimostrati estremamente gentili e pronti a rispondere a qualsiasi domanda o richiesta di chiarimento. Il servizio offerto è stato semplicemente eccellente. Il personale si è assicurato costantemente che tutto andasse per il verso giusto e che i nostri bisogni fossero soddisfatti. Il cibo servito è stato semplicemente divino. La pizza, in particolare, ha presentato l'autentico sapore della tradizionale pizza barese, con una base sottile e croccante che era un vero piacere per il palato. Gli antipasti erano deliziosi e generosi nelle porzioni, offrendo un'ampia varietà di gusti e sapori. Non posso fare altro che raccomandare caldamente questo posto. Se cercate un ristorante/pizzeria con un servizio impeccabile, cibo squisito e un'atmosfera accogliente, non cercate oltre. Questo è il posto perfetto per voi.
