Was excited when I heard that a new Neapolitan Pizza place opened up in my area so I was eager to try this place out. I made reservations to attend with 3 fellow diners who were equally as keen on welcoming Sip to the neighbourhood as a new staple.
Service was okay -- our waitress was friendly and amicable.
Great breads and dips started off the night; we couldn't get enough!
This is what was ordered:
* Caprese: nice and fresh, but small in portion (6/10)
* Pizza Bruschetta: great tomato bruschetta, this one was a winnder (8/10)
* Gnocchi: mushy and dull (6/10)
* Funghi Pizza: dough was tasty but overcooked and the toppings were sparse (6/10)
* Sip Pizza: better than the latter and pretty unique but again hardly any toppings and was quite overdone (6/10)
* Tronchetto: small, again sparse on toppings and nothing special (6/10)
Because of allergies, one of my fellow diners asked to substitute a topping which they refused to do until we spoke to the manager. The waitress claimed that the chef did not like to make changes as his recipes needed to be serves as he imagined them... I understand this in theory but they also offer a Build-Your-Own pizza! Strange!
Food was on very expensive considering the portions and the fare, but we remained hopeful that taste and quality would make it worthwhile. Unfortunately the pizzas and pastas fell short of our expectations.
If it was less expensive I'd be inclined to visit again, but alas I'll be sticking to Grazie's when it comes to Italian food in the area.
