The location is ideal: right in the heart of downtown, yet tucked away on a side street, as if someone had decided to bury a treasure and then camouflage it with pizza.

The value for money is excellent. You get the feeling that the owners are secretly protesting against inflation.
After many years, La Filme has become a fixture in the city. Some come for the pizza, some for the pasta. Most come back eventually.
Of course, no one has managed that yet.
