IZZA Kallio — Restaurant in Helsinki sub-region

Mitä ihmettä. Confusingly good. Like, I felt I was ripping them off by paying too little for so much quality buffet. 13.50e is pretty regular for lunch these days (kirvelee), but the quality of the ingredients here is ridiculous. Rome style pizza doesn't photograph well; I can't see the quality of taste and chewy texture in the pictures I took just a moment ago. Roman pizza looks like mom's improvised dry oven sheet pizza that never really tasted special but hit the spot after a day outside. Hunger is the best sauce and all that. This pizza is just crazy good, and 6 to choose from at lunch. I'm picky, and I could not decide which was the winner out of my top 4. It's still delicious after you can't breathe. The law of diminishing returns does not apply. It is an anomaly; a mystery for science. I was looking around at others in the restaurant wondering how they were not all losing their minds or giggling uncontrollably. You need to try it. Best value lunch I've had in Finland by a long shot. One thing: a sharper knife would help to cut through the chewiness...

I have been here a few times now,

Each time has been a very warm welcome from the owners and staff. They have been really involved with their customers, asking how we are doing, what options they offer and how they're happy we are there.

The pizza buffet is absolutely amazing. So many different options that all taste amazing. They always try new different kinds of pizzas, one of the best is the spicy pepperoni

They also make in-house hot sauces, one of them is jalapeños, this is a mild sauce but so tasty and I would put it on all of my food, The second one is a scorpion sauce and that is a bit hotter, and I love it! Keep it up!

I will most definitely be back! It is my favorite pizza place!

NOTE: they have a location on mikonkatu if you're downtown!...

I am writing this review with plenty of delicious flavours on my tongue.

Since one slice looked a bit small, I ordered two slices: a meatball izza and a prosciutto izza. Turns out, even one slice fills your belly quite well, but I'm still happy I took two.

The meatball izza was pleasantly spicy. The prosciutto one tasted as delicious as only a thin ham can. My favourite part was still the crust! Crunchy on the outside, soft in the inside, and very tasty. It made the izzas taste refreshingly different to traditional pizzas.

The staff is friendly and nice, and the view to the street offers something interesting to watch while eating. The ginger beer was a perfect companion...
