Ristorante pizzeria L'Oasi — Restaurant in Imperia

Visited this place on a Tuesday around 20pm. It’s located on a small square and is packed with people. Expect to wait for your table in a line - we waited just about 15 minutes. Pros: - awesome prices (9 Euro per plate of pasta/pizza) big portions sharing each plate gives you the possibility to try out a lots of different dishes Interesting concept of food brought to your table and you can accept or deny it nice atmosphere pizza toppings have unusual combinations - the only “classic” we saw was margarita buffalo Cons: if you want to visit as a couple only, you will not get to try much (we managed to eat two pizzas). It’s better to visit as a bigger group of people (preferably of 6 people). If you choose to come as a couple or 3 people only you will might have to wait to accept a meal you would like to eat. you need to be lucky or wait longer time to be able to pick a dish you really want right after our arrival we saw how waiters were walking around in circles with the same pizzas which kept being declined from all tables. After we sat down the waitress came straight to us presenting pizza with potatoes and green peas. Since we were only 2 people we knew we’d have to each eat half of each meal we chose and we didn’t like this combination so we kindly declined. However the waitress stayed and looked annoyingly at us trying to make us accept it, finally she asked why we don’t like this pizza - then we said we didn’t like the potatoes on it. She said “Ok” and left. This was a weird pushy experience right after our arrival.

However other waiters and waitresses were all very friendly and polite ✌️ All in all i would totally recommend this place and absolutely come back with a group of at least 5...

Not Your Regular Restaurant – And Not in a Good Way

This isn’t your typical restaurant. It’s more of a rotating kitchen that serves pizza and pasta – but not necessarily what you want. You don’t order off a menu. Instead, they bring out whatever they’ve prepared, and you wait and decide whether you want it or not. The problem? You often end up waiting quite a while until something you actually like shows up.

We made the mistake of starting with their folded pizza bread filled with cheese – too heavy, too bland, and not a good way to begin a meal. After that, we managed to grab one of the pasta dishes (nothing memorable), followed by one of their regular pizzas. Unfortunately, the pizza was mediocre – doughy crust, unremarkable toppings, and nothing that stood out in terms of flavor.

Prices are also on the high side for what you get: $12 for each pizza or pasta dish, which is more expensive than at other local spots that offer better quality and more control over what you eat. Even the tiny cup of juice they served cost $2 each – and it really was tiny.

In the end, we spent more than we would have at a normal restaurant, waited longer, and left not particularly satisfied. It’s an interesting concept, maybe, but the execution and value just aren’t there. If you’re in the area and craving pizza or pasta, you’re probably better off going somewhere else where you know what you’re...

I'm taking a piece of Italy back to Argentina with me, thanks Lollo and Alan for the wonderful evenings and hospitality – you made me feel...
