Delicious food. Good service. Great location closed to Takapuna Beach. Portion size is a bit small. The waitress said they use halal beef.
Indulged in the magic of pizza perfection at this top 50 global gem. Every bite was a revelation of deliciousness, from the flawless texture of the crust to the flavors in the amazing sauce. The friendly staff added warmth to the experience, making it a delightful culinary journey. The tomato sauce and cheese are exceptional. This pizzeria not only lives up to its world-class reputation but exceeds it with a symphony of taste and service. A must-visit for any pizza connoisseur, where each slice is a testament to their mastery in crafting a truly exceptional and memorable dining experience.
I’m Italian and I have been yesterday for a Margherita, I used to be a pizza chef myself and I can tell you that in 9 years here in NZ I have never eat a pizza so good. Crust is way over the perfection and the mozzarella is another level, you can tell they import the mozzarella from Italy. The only disappointment from my experience is with myself because I should go there way before. Thanks again guy for the amazing pizza. Alex
I really like the ambiance here. It's nice and relaxed. The staff was really approachable and helpful, and really seemed to care if we enjoyed the food and the experience. The food was pretty good and didn't take very long to come out. Definitely a place I would consider coming back to in the future.
Service is mint and the food is amazing. Cost of the meal was a tad on the high side, but the experience is worth it. The menu is standard with servings of fair size. Bathrooms located opposite end of Eat Street. Limited seating in the restaurant but more seating available at the same end with in the Court Yard. Recommend dining in early or outside peak times as this place is popular.
Fantastic pizza. I am surprised it doesn't have a higher rating on Google. The crust was amazing-- charred and crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. Compares favorably with restaurants like 400 Gradi in Australia and the traditional pizzas we've had in Italy. Wonderful, memorable meal.
