Pizzeria Sotto Il Ponte — Restaurant in Siena

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Our dining experience at this restaurant was quite the adventure! 🌟 We had a bit of a mix-up with the English translation on the menu, which led to me accidentally ordering pork—something I can't eat. 😱 After a brief explanation and working with the waiter to identify where Google Translate went wrong, they graciously allowed me to order a new pizza. 🍕👍

As if one mishap wasn't enough, our youngest fell ill, so we had to take both the new pizza and her meal to go. 🚗💨 Despite all these challenges, the staff remained incredibly kind and patient throughout. Their hospitality was commendable. 🙏

And let's not forget—their pizzas are absolutely freaking amazing! 🍕❤️

A word of advice for English-speaking tourists: the menu is Google Translated and can be quite inaccurate. It's better to use the Italian menu and Google images if you need to look something up. 📱📸

Overall, despite the hurdles, we left with full hearts and satisfied...

This is basically a takeaway pizza place but it has tables with room for about 10 people. There are notices saying they don't do actual table service, so you order your pizza and wait, then eat it at your table. They do provide plates and cutlery if you want them, and they sell drinks (wine, beer, soft drinks) and provide glasses.

There is a very extensive menu (ask for an English version) and the pizzas are absolutely delicious, on thin dough with no sogginess. If you think you're the type to leave your pizza crusts, then think again: you will probably eat these ones as they're so yummy.

We were there on a busy Sunday evening with a crowd of people waiting at the counter and the phone ringing off the hook with orders. These guys all worked like a well-oiled machine cooking pizzas and delivering orders with the minimum of stress. A joy to watch.

One last thing: check out the toilet. Seriously, it could be the toilet of a top...

We came to visit Siena for a week and had “a few” takeaways. Usually my wife prefers pasta but this pizza is amazing so she became a convert! I love pizza and I can eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. With all my “experience “ I can say that this pizza is the best I’ve ever eaten in whole Italy. If I could give 10 stars I would. Ps. Sorry for the photo of pizza but never had a chance to take photo of the whole pizza - it’s so delicious you have to start eating...
