Esperienza più che positiva Locale non con vista mare ma sul mare, lontano dalla folla e dai rumori, non vedi il sole tramontare ma la luna sorgere. Pizza e schiacciatine ottime perché il pizzaiolo ha un esperienza direi trentennale!!! Proprietari gentili e professionali, cameriera attenta e gentile. Consigliatissimo

Wir haben dieses Restaurant durch Zufall entdeckt. Erst skeptisch, weil wenig los und zu schön um wahr zu sein, wurden wir positiv überrascht. Freundliche Bedienung, trotz Sprachbariere und sehr leckere Pizza. Das Ambiente ist einfach nur schön, wir empfehlen das Restaurant uneingeschränkt weiter.

Found this place by chance and stopped for a casual lunch. You order at the bar and they call your name when you food is ready to collect. There is a terrace that seats 24 on 6 tables. We had pizza which was good and the food that other customers had looked good too. The prices were great too. Would recommend.
