“ Food was amazing!! Had one of the best pizzas I have ever had in my life! Meatballs were very good, they tasted home made. The ambience and the music were perfect, made us feel very cosy. People were very friendly as well. Overall, best pizza place in Dorset :) Grazie. ”
“ Absolutely amazing experience! The pizzas here are out of this world — honestly, even better than the ones I had in Italy. The crust is perfectly crisp, the ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the flavors are just divine. On top of that, the service was flawless. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome from the moment we walked in. It’s rare to find such a perfect balance of quality food and warm hospitality. The atmosphere is cozy yet modern, and you can tell there's real passion behind everything they do. I’ll definitely be coming back! ”
“ I visited once on our staff Christmas meal in early December, and since then it has become a mainstay for whenever my partner and I are looking to get pizza. Cosy atmosphere, warm, welcoming staff, brilliant food, and the tiramisu is to die for. ”
“ Honestly, the best pizza I've ever had. My dad and I found this place br accident and were so glad we did. It's how pizza should be. The main guy, the waiter, I don't know his name but his service is top notch. He's funny and very professional. The atmosphere is great, everyone seemed happy and full! We were in Poole 2 days and ate here twice. Once in the restaurant and once as a takeaway. We will 100% be back next year. Thank you for creating such a great restaurant and best pizza ever. Heads up warning, this is our mistake, the garlic bread is the same size as the standard pizza they do. We messed up here. We didn't read the menu properly. The garlic bread again though, very very very tasty. ”
“ Was looking for the perfect quick, proper Italian pizza and a beer and found it here. Friendly service too. Recommended. ”
“ It was simply fantastic! Excellent bruschetta, one of the best pizzas I have ever eaten and a delicious salad for my companion - followed by homemade tiramisu and tartufo of the finest quality! Thank you for the very attentive and extremely friendly service and for letting me buy a bottle of the phenomenal balsamic vinegar. It was a very successful evening! ”
“ I have to say that this place won my heart, simply one of the best pizzerias in the town. Excellent service, everyone was super smiling and made me and my friends feel at home, they were super friendly with our dog and everyone in the restaurant were happy to have her there. The food is beyond words, the pizza made in the wood oven makes all the difference. 5 stars, I recommend trying this incredible place. ”
“ Visiting from Canada - Arguably the best pizza I've ever had in my life, and the balsamic they use is without a doubt the best I've ever tasted (outstanding on salads - they very kindly let me purchase a bottle)! Our repeat server/host from Naples was the best, but great service and hospitality all around which is why we returned multiple times for meals while visiting Poole. Wish there was a spot as good in Canada; can't wait to return. ”
