Le Pizze di Frankie — Restaurant in Prague

Our visit was very disappointing. This place presents itself as a place where you can order "real Italian pizza". Well, let me tell you this. I've been to Italy recently, coincidentally, and the difference is indescribable. Paying almost 250 crowns for a pizza that is 25cm big, has burnt edges and the dough in the middle of the pizza is unfinished seemed very sad to me. There was a layer of glistening oil all over the pizza in which I could almost see my reflection by how much oil was there. Add to that the waitress who barely looked you in the eye, spoke in such a tone that it almost sounded like you were bothering her (she was a young lady who couldn't have been more than 25 years old, by the way). My girlfriend and I decided to sit outside. Here comes the only bright moment of our visit, as we waited only 10 minutes for this gastronomic wonder. However, the lady didn't even bother to bring us napkins to accompany such disgustingly greasy pizzas, which I personally find to be a staple in any restaurant, especially when you get food that literally has a layer of oil on it. After we finished eating, we went inside to pay. After we announced that we would be paying by card, the lady typed the amount into the terminal and turned her back on us. As you know, it's customary everywhere for the attendant to announce the amount you'll be paying and tell you when the terminal is ready to swipe your card and pay. However, we didn't get that here either. Given the amount we left here, I have no choice but to leave a below average rating, with the best rating in the bottom rungs of the very weak. Realistically, an hour and a half after we left, we were both hungry again. Which, considering we left almost 500 crowns for 2 pizzas, is terrible. I definitely wouldn't recommend this place if you want to go for a good meal that you won't regret spending money on...

Ok I ate here tonight. Well to be more accurate I took a pizza home and ate it there. My feedback, just my opinion mind you.... The pizza was tasty, but I think over priced for the size. It’s a pretty small pizza, about 24 cm(?) with maybe 2 Tbs sauce, 50 g of cheese 3-4 sliced mushrooms and 2-3 slices of chopped ham. All the ingredients were very fresh and good quality. They charge 170 cs including the box. It’s definitely a one person pizza and honestly I wasn’t really close to full afterwards. Compared to Johnnys, I think Johnny’s comes out the winner. A large Johnnys can feed 2-3 people comfortably for about 240-280 cs, is richly covered with a larger amount of toppings, sauce and spices, and the taste is as good or better. Yes Johnnys is a different style and this is definitely authentic, with real pizza cooks behind the counter. Very nice team in fact and friendly with the customers. So yes, the pizza was very good and I really enjoyed the taste, but not the hit to my wallet or the lingering hunger...

I cannot believe that after many years, tons of money made, and other branches opened in Prague, they are still baking in the modified amateurs' Ferrari ovens they used to have years ago. Result: the pizza is small and the border does not grow much. They may state that this is the original traditional Napoletana, not the modern version with high border. But the difference with a traditional Napoletana is that for 8 euros you would expect a huge "Ruota di carro", not a 25 cm kids' size. I cannot complain about the quality of the ingredients which is very good, my disappointment is all about the tools used (they check the temperature of the stone with a thermometer the same way I do it at home on my own) which does not allow the best possible result in terms of baking of the dough. I would not pay more than 5 euros for a kids size pizza. We are very close to rip-off, or simply a perfect application of the concept of...
