Pizza wasn't on my list, but most places closed at 11 pm and that was about 15 minutes away. When I initially looked it I was worried they weren't going to serve food as I only saw younger adults enjoying drinks. When I walked in I was surprised by the size of the space and the mixed bag of people, including families. The waiter was nice and helpful. He seemed concerned my selection wasn't going to be filling and recommended heartier options. I upgraded to a large, but kept with the margarita pizza as it has a thin crust and won't be too filling this late in the night. The place is a little noisy for my tast, butI enjoyed my pizza, sangria and found it to be an overall positive experience. Oh, they also have free WiFi, ask for the password.

Padaría Iris, even during its busiest hours, will accommodate you and serve you their best dishes, snacks, etc. Even though they don't always put the most butter, they still make amazing torradas and serve it nice and warm.

I speak a little Portuguese so I only talk in Portuguese, so for tourists who only speak English or another language, I'd try to learn a couple words or point to foods. An amazing bakery and breakfast spot for anyone. You can even get food during the afternoon. Ice cream and deserts are plentiful and delicious!

I asked if we could sit down to eat and he slaps me on the back and says "yes, bambino!" Thus began a fine experience at this lovely Italian restaurant. That guy turns out to be the proprietor and his energetic attitude is only matched by the quality of the food. Fresh ingredients simply prepared with care...that's all you can ask for from any establishment and this place certainly delivers on that. Everything was very good: fried polenta app, Margherita pizza, tagliatelle pasta (we had bolognese and pesto sauces). Simple house glass of wine. Fine desserts and coffee. Friendly and attentive servers. Affordable. GO THERE.

I have mixed feelings about writing this review. I really want to love this place (their star pizza…read moreis a fave) but also, when you leave a place feeling a bit bamboozled by the experience, it makes you question returning. I do find that the "forced appetizer" concept is a bit over the top here. Often times the tables have bread, olives, jam/spreads sitting at the table on arrival. If you aren't familiar with "the way", most people eat them and are blind sided when they are on your bill. BUT this place doesn't stop there. They often bring three types appetizers to the table, which if you eat them, it is likely to raise your bill by 10/15 dollars (as a guess). I always turn them down. BUT just know. That bread sitting on the table has probably been breathed on by another table that turned it away. They are taken to and from the table often and I am unsure if that app is sanitary to eat at that point. Maybe? But be warned. Don't touch the apps or send them away as the arrive. You will be billed. Service is often, not the friendliest. We have gotten one lovely gentleman from Brazil once as a server and he was fab! But recently we got this woman that was less than friendly. Calling people "hey lady" when needing to get attention, and not patient. Maybe just say "excuse me" next time as some feedback. To be fair, it might be a direct language translation (Menina) which is acceptable in Portuguese. Even if so, the place had basically zero people the most recent visit except us and I felt patience and kindness could have been extended a little more. FYI: they won't give you tap water (even though legally they have to when requested) so expect to buy your water, maybe if you are a local Português things are different. I am not Portuguese but I am local and this is the first place that has ever refused me a cup of water. "It tastes bad" was the reason. As a side note: the first time we came here we arrived at 11:58. They opened at 12:00 and they told us we had to wait outside until 12...in the bitter cold and torrential rainfall. I understand not being "open" but I don't think there would have harm in allowing us the stand in the entry way for less than 2 minutes until the proverbial open gates flung open. Overall, you likely will enjoy your meal. But just be aware of the funky little quirks about this place. Oh ya, and paying and splitting bills can get funky with them too so just bring cash if you have more than yourself and you are splitting the bill.... I say this so you don't have to navigate it. There is a lot of good things about this place and I hope next time, if I visit again, things will feel different. It might have been a bad few days for them. I mean, we haven't seen the sun for weeeeeeeks so maybe we are all just blue.

We decided to go with pizza and chose IL Pizzaiolo based on walking distance from our hotel. We came at 630 pm when the restaurant first opened and were the first patron that night. We got the chicken Caesar salad and the Diavolina (spicy salami) pizza. Firstly, on the table is a basket of bread and condiments. I recalled later on past review Yelp that if you eat it, there will be an additional charge to your bill. They don't say anything about that additional charge so be mindful of it. The charge you will see on your bill is Pao Cecete (bread) 2 euro and couvert pizzeria (condiment of butter, Olive oil and olives (2.8 euro) When we finished the sides, the waitress took our small plates and brought our salad and pizza. The pizza is not sliced at all and we had to ask the waitress for 2 plates to share the pizza and salad. I guess for some, the salad is their main meal. Chicken salad Caesar - 14.45 euro - delicious and had bits of bacon along with egg, Parmesan slices and croutons. Chicken breast was large pieces. 5 stars The Diavolina- got our craving for a light dish and something that had a light thin crust , light tomato sauce and tasty soft crust that hit the spot. 5 stars Yes, the price is a bit high but worth eating if you are craving for something like pizza.
