Small food place hidden at the end of an alleyway (we arrived slightly before then opening time and the gates were closed). The boss comes and opens up the gates around opening time (maybe a little late). In terms of food and the whole place, I would say its great for some food after a late night out and for some cheapish pizza. Theres quite a few pizza selection and the pizza is served on half a pizza box. You order, find a seat and then the staff will call your pizza out or let you know when your pizza is ready for collection.
Pizza was decent sized and an average amount of topping. I personally found the pizza a tad bit salty due to the tomatoe sauce but it wasnt too bad, this was just my personal taste.
NOTE: you must order at least 1 pizza each. no sharing allowed.

Read moreIf you're in search of gourmet pizza or a sit-down dining experience, this might not be the spot for you. However, the owner is wonderfully kind and accommodating, especially to those unfamiliar with the Italian language. The pizzas, while not spectacular, are satisfying and fall more into the "street food" or "late-night snack" category.
The ambiance is very casual, with limited seating and no available washrooms. We had initially hoped for a more traditional dining experience based on online reviews, so the place fell a bit short of our expectations in that regard.
That said, if you know what you're getting into, you won't be disappointed. Be prepared, though, the prices seem a bit steep for the style and quality of the food. Overall, a cozy, no-frills place with a...
