| - I love Neapolitan style pizza, so I was really excited to discover this place on Yelp. My husband and I went there for dinner recently during our trip to Montreal. It was fantastic!
I had the I started with the arugula salad ($5) and then had the Margherita Pizza ($9), while my husband started with the Caesar salad ($5) and then had the Porchetta Pizza ($16). My husband also had some local beer ($5 a bottle).
My salad was a really good size for a starter. It had fresh baby arugula, some chunks of fior di latte, cherry tomatoes and grated Parmesan cheese. The dressing was citrusy. It was delicious and I would definitely order it again. My pizza was delicious. The crust was thin and blistery as Neapolitan style pizza should be. It wasn't too burnt (which sometimes happens with this type of pizza). The sauce was not excessive and had a nice tang to it. There was the right amount of cheese (fior di latte) and a few basil leaves. I loved it.
My husband enjoyed his Caesar salad (I'm not a fan, so I didn't try any). He said "it tasted like it was made with quality ingredients." I had a slice of the Porchetta Pizza and it was ok, but I liked mine more. It was an olive oil based pizza (no tomato sauce). It had porchetta and fior di latte, but also some Romano cheese. It also had some marinated vegetables (definitely artichoke and I think also eggplant), hot peppers and basil leaves. It was definitely oilier/greasier than my pizza. I like tomato sauce based pizzas, so I might be biased in my opinion.
The place is not very large, so it filled up quickly. There are about 30 seats in the whole restaurant. There is an open kitchen behind glass windows. You can see the staff making your pizzas. I noticed that the person who handled the pizzas after they came out of the oven wore gloves. I am a huge fan of this practice!
Service was very nice and attentive. As soon as my husband finished his beer, they asked if he wanted another one. And as soon as our waters were running low, they refilled them.
The place gets really warm due to the pizza oven, so dress appropriately. I would not want to be in a wool sweater or a turtleneck or anything like that in the restaurant! The washrooms are cool. They have 3 universal/unisex water closets with just a toilet, then there is a communal area with a sink.
If you like pizza and especially Neapolitan style pizza, you should definitely check this place out.
