From the owner: Wenn Du einmal unsere Pizza probiert hast, dann weißt Du schon, dass Du danach keine andere mehr…read moreanrühren wirst. Bei uns wird die Pizza noch direkt am offenen Feuer in unserem Holzofen gebacken. Und nicht mit irgendwelchem Holz! Wir verwenden nur Buchenholz für unseren Ofen, denn das sichert diese spezielle Zusatznote, diesen nussigen, erdigen Geschmack. Natürlich sind die Zutaten für die Pizza, nur vom Feinsten und immer super frisch - vom Teig bis Tomatensoße. Jede einzelne Pizza wird so zu einem Kunstwerk. Und wenn Du jetzt denkst: die übertreiben - dann probier' es doch einfach mal aus...

I was really thinking about how many stars to give, and it doesn't metter how hard I tried to find…read morea reason to take away a star, I can't. The restaurant is located inside the shopping center in a very central location on the ground floor. The tables are not really isolated from the rest of the shopping center, still this is not a reason for discomfort. However if you are looking for some candle light romantic place, keep searching ;) The service is great. Even if I was there couple of times this week, the waiter was the same, and because I like consistency, that's just perfect. At first sight the place looks small, so you wouldn't expect a really big choice. Well you just don't know how wrong you are. I have been too bigger Italians whit less too offer. Pizza, pasta, lasagna, and much more. Desserts and coffee are also on the menu. Now to the best part. Partly because it's small so everything is fresh, and partly because of the consistency I was talking about, the food is just great. I would recommend without any restraint to try anything from the menu. So if you are looking for alternative for the other Italians in this area, our just looking for something new, this is the place to be.
