   I visited this restaurant yesterday, and it completely exceeded my expectations. Everyone was friendly and professional but I want to give special mention to one member of the team in particular — Giampiero he was exceptionally kind, attentive, and consistently made sure we had everything we needed. His service truly elevated our experience. One of the highlights was watching the pizza dough being prepared right in front of us — such a simple thing, yet it added so much charm, and you could instantly tell they care about quality. We ordered a Five Cheese Pizza and a Prosciutto Pizza, and both were incredibly flavorful. The dough was perfect, light yet crispy, and the toppings were rich and delicious.We also tried the Tuscan sausage with cheese on top, which was packed with flavor and cooked beautifully. And to finish things off, we had a Nutella pizzetta for dessert The atmosphere of the restaurant was warm, lively, and genuinely enjoyable. A fun surprise was the little game they offered where you pick a number for a chance to win a prize. We actually won a flour bag — which is perfect because we’re planning to start making our own pizzas soon! Such a fun and unique touch.

   Solid pizza. It's thinner like New York style, but a bit underdone for my tastes (I prefer a crispier crust). The Xmas pizza was quite good, and the festive flavors were all there. The Margherita pizza tasted fresh, but wasn't anything special when compared to the Xmas pizza.

   Visited recently with family for lunch - we really enjoyed the high quality food with new pizzas added for the winter menu. Staff were very friendly and attentive and we were sat at a table straight away. Will definitely be back again soon!

   The pizza had a soft yet chewy crust with a rich wheat flavor. The spicy salami on top had a unique smoky taste, and the tomato sauce was fresh and mild, perfectly balanced. The mascarpone on the tiramisu was light and delicate, making it a perfect dessert to end the meal. Our server, Mr. Giampiero, was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. Whether you’re dining with friends or enjoying a meal alone, this restaurant is a great choice.

   Amazing pizza I have ever had. Fresh dough, wonderful toppings. It takes 45 minutes to get your pizza on the table after putting the order. But it was awesome. I had garlic bread with tomato base and pizza with mozzarella cheese, basil and tomato. Both were too yummy.Nice ambience, good staff.

   We (two of us) went here for a fairly quick meal before catching a train. We were met by a very friendly member of staff who got us seated and gave us menus. 2 pizzas, 2 beers and water was served very quickly after ordering. The sour dough was amazing, the Pizza was a little bit over fired in placed but it did not affect the quality. A great restaurant Well worth going

   This restaurant gives an authentic Italian experience all the way here in Scotland. The food, all for a fair price, was exquisite. The sourdough pizzas are amazing! The vibe in the restaurant was also great and the staff was eager to help, all with a smile. We had a great time here, so I would certainly recommend this place for a quick bite or a lengthy meal.

   The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Good choice on the menu (with alternatives for various intolerances). Pizza dough was nice and crisp on the outside but still light, the crust was good but was better with one of the dips. Tiramisu was a lovely way to end the meal.

   Really nice pizza, I love the dough it's just so light and fluffy! I had the anchovy pizza as this is my go to wherever I see it at a pizza place. The aubergine parmigiana was quite bland but it tasted fresh. It could have done with a hint of basil or fresh herb to finish it off, but that's my taste. It's wasn't too expensive either and the no logo large was really nice. Be aware they put a "optional service charge" on the end of your bill which I always find a bit cheeky as the price of the food should cover the service. I would have tipped more if this had not been put on my bill.
