Word of mouth
What guests are saying
Honestly, one of the best pizzas I ever had. I also tried the pistachio pasta and it was outstanding. I'll be back, and bring a lot of friends. Thank you for the great service and smiles.
The cocktails are outstanding and the pasta perfectly al dente. One of the best Italian restaurants in Brussels — so happy to have found this place.
As before, the meal was good, the service very good and the bill reasonable.
Pistachio pasta — a killer, sooo good! Friendly, welcoming service and a lovely little terrace in summer.
We really enjoyed our starters and pizza, and the little terrace at the back of the restaurant. The stracciatella was delicious!
