"Come here for a friend dinner last Sunday and order appetiser and pizza's being Italian I had high expectation for this place and unfortunately I have to say it didn't quite meet them The dough itself was nice with crunchy semolina flour at the bottom and nice traditional Napoletana crust a bit disappointed about the topping which was not enough for our point of view considering the premium price we paid I know a pizza is mostly about the crust, but toppings are also half what you pay for and having 3 slices of eggplant and 3 of cheese doesn't make the price we paid the service was great and the waitress nice and friendly and caring about the service she provided the pizzeria is also located on a street food style area , again another point down on having to justify the high price"
"Definitely authentic Neapolitan pizza. It wants you to savour the crust with minimal sauce. Staff are efficient and friendly. The place is tiny though you will have a hard time if you want to take off your winter coat. They said the pizza is a personal size but I find that a bit big for 1 person. I will recommend sharing 2 with 3 people."
"I've been a loyal patron of this establishment for over seven years, but my most recent experience was profoundly disappointing. It was one of the poorest services I've ever encountered. It seemed as though children were operating the place, with three of them more engrossed in their phones than in serving the customers. Their inattention was glaringly obvious. Our order, which consisted of four pizzas and sides, was botched. Only three pizzas made it to our table, and they bore toppings that we hadn't requested. Additionally, the drinks we received were not the ones we ordered. When one is shelling out premium prices for pizza, it's reasonable to anticipate an excellent experience in return. However, the pizzas were soggy and lacked structural integrity. It's clear that the management needs to take a hard look at the state of affairs in the restaurant, including their choice of staff. It's a sad end to our patronage of what was once our favorite pizza joint in Auckland."
"The service is lovely, and the setting quaint. We ordered a pasta each, and although it fit the description, we both longed for a little something more. The sauces on both pastas were adequate, but perhaps lacked a five star depth. I just felt I could have made the pasta at home. We THEN ordered a Woodfire pizza to go which was an 8/10."
