I LAZZARI — Restaurant in Paris

This place offers one of the best pizzas we have had in a long time. My friend and I visited I Lazzari yesterday while wondering in the Saint Germain de Prés area. We are both Italians and expats for work. The place is deliciously furnished in Italian style and looks like a home kitchen. White tablecloths, careful service, fun and informal ambiance. But most most important: incredible food. The pizzas are beyond remarkable. For starters we had scugnizzi con melanzane and there incredible. We had a burratina pizza, and the tomato sauce itself is worth a visit. Great ingredients, fresh and tasty like the best Italian tradition.

We inquired what then, exactly, the point of a reservation was, at which point she impolitely demanded that we leave and wait outside for another table. All this after being seated by one of her colleagues, who looked on helplessly, despite confirming that we did have a reservation.

The food looked good, but this horrific experience left a bad taste in our mouth. We...

I am not the type of person who writes restaurant's reviews but I really think this is worth of doing so. Although the food is actually good, the service is terrible, I have been here two times (gave it a second chance) and both of them have been a disaster. Last time we were literally kicked out of the place while we were still drinking our wine! (They started kicking us out after 1 HOUR of being there) They really don't want people staying longer than an hour and they will let you know, it doesn't matter if you haven't finished your meal.

There was also another couple complaining about the service as we...
