I drooped in to Magpie's after a tough workout with friends, we were looking for a quick easy dinner and pizza sounded good. I was pleasantly surprised with Magpie's the ambiance was warm and inviting, even though the restaurant was full when we arrived it didn't feel too noisy or cramped. My friends and I were able to have a conversation without having to yell, the music volume was at an appropriate level.
The wait staff was very nice and efficient, we never felt like we were lacking anything and when something was missing it seemed to appear on the table just as we noticed it might be missing. The only thing we had to ask for was a bottle of spicy oil we had seen on the table next to ours when we first came in. and even that arrived at our table seconds after we asked.
We ordered two pizzas one Margarita and the pizza of the day which had spinach, anchovies and ricotta cheese. Both pizzas were excellent, I preferred the margarita pizza but that's because it had a little more spice to it. The wood burning oven definitely added to the flavour of the crust, giving it a nice smoky taste. Add some spicy oil to the mix and you have the making of a great pizza.
I think everyone should drop in and try this great little neighbourhood eatery, at least once, I know I'll be back.
