"We thought we were walking into someone's house to start with but don't let the innocuous door put you off, there is a lovely restaurant behind what looks like the front door to a house. We shared prawns and a salad to start and then had thin, flavorsome pizzas for main finished off with ice cream. Really good value for money, I think my pizza was about 15 CHF which is one of the cheapest meals we've had here but my vegetarian pizza had a load of toppings and the prawns and salad were beautifully dressed. It was super busy in there so would recommend to book if you can, we were squeezed in a we arrived at opening time."

"Everyone loves their food! Pizza is thin crust, well baked and there are tons to choose from - calzone and Cambreia were a hit. Pasta dishes were well enjoyed as well. Pesto spaghetti, Penne and tomato sauce, Bolognese pasta, penne all'arabiatta, all good. Sat in the covered patio, friendly service. Kid size pizza and pasta plates available. Vegetarian options."
