Pizza Papa — Restaurant in Bordeaux

Little hole in the wall restaurant. The hours on Google are not correct. They are not open all day. They open for dinner around 6:30-7 (kind of when they get ready), but are willing to take orders around 6:30.

The end result is a wonderful true pizza. I repeat myself because I find it hard to find a true milano pizza outside of Milan.

Totally outstandingly awful service. I suggested that we leave, but the group were so hungry after the marathon, we stayed just to get food. So, in summary I would only recommend this place if you fancy awful aggressive service reminiscent of...

We visited here twice when we stayed in Bordeaux. The first time we had left an event late and almost everywhere was closing. The owner was closing but she let us order pizza anyway. She was so nice, we went back to try other options another night. The lasagna is one of the best I've ever had. The desert was a spin on Crema Catalana, it was lemon flavored and served in a frozen lemon skin, which was neat. It was really good. When we go back to Bordeaux, we'll definitely eat here again! The owner was really so sweet and the food was...
