Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Das Essen war gut, die Pizza sehr groß und günstig, der Salat und Bruschetta auch sehr gut, lediglich die Nudeln mit Lachs waren geschmacklich nicht so besonders. Deswegen 4 Sterne. Aber wir werden wieder kommen und vielleicht andere Pasta Varianten probieren."
"Bester Italiener in Nürnberg! Wo bekommt man so einen Service? Es bedient zwar eine Person und es ist hektisch und vielleicht dauert das Essen länger aber das ist es wert. Beste Pizza beste Nudeln für den Preis? Unschlagbar"
"Wir haben ein Restaurant in der Nähe vom Schwarzlicht Minigolf gesucht und sind hier drauf gekommen. Es war super lecker. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. Man muss auf jeden Fall vorher reservieren!"
"Etwas schwierig zu finden, trotz Navi, direkt bei den Schrebergärten. Essen war sehr lecker, Bedienung sehr freundlich. Etwas mehr Würze, dann hätte es 5 Sterne gegeben. Etwas nach gewürzt, dann war es sehr gut. Sehr gutes Preis -Leistungs- Verhältnis. Gerne mal wieder..."
"Gemütliche Pizzeria in ruhiger Lage (hinter Schrebergärten). Da kriegt man kaum mit, das man in mitten einer großen Stadt ist. Die Pizza war hervorragend und das Preis / Leistungsverhältnis ist super. Man wird freundlich empfangen und geht nach dem Essen satt und zufrieden seines Weges. die Pizza ist groß genug, um auch Menschen mit großem Hunger satt zu kriegen"
"Diese kleine Pizzeria ist ein Geheimtipp. Es schmeckt einfach fantastisch. Super Salat, ganz tolle Pizza. Sehr gut belegt und einfach gut. Das erwartet man garnicht, wenn man reinkommt. Vielen dank, wir kommen wieder."
"What a great pizzeria! The owner is humble and very funny. The pizzas are incredibly large and delicious. The dough is excellent, with a perfect blend of Neapolitan and Roman styles. The atmosphere is also fantastic, and I particularly enjoyed the big picture of Adriano Celentano on the wall. I will definitely be coming back!"
"Clean and comfortable environment, very friendly and helpful staff, we requested a pizza off the menu and they accommodated us, we will be back next time we come to Nuremberg with friends"
