Now it's one of my most favorite pizzerias of Vilnius. The first advantage is that it works 24/7. We arrived in Vilnius quite late when most of the places were closed. Cili Pica was our salvation. Secondly, the choice of food is pretty rich. There are pizzas, burgers, desserts, cocktails, tea, coffee beer, etc. The third advantage is the taste of food. It is really delicious and of a great quality. I highly recommend the burgers and try the strawberry-mint tea. Moreover, the staff is friendly, caring and English-speaking. There are two floors, one of the halls is underground with ancient walls. You get an amazing feeling as if you are in a medieval castle. The wi-fi works well (but it doesn't work underground - a really medieval atmosphere). The prices are typical for Lithuania (an average check of 3-4 dishes is about 28 euros). At night there is a DJ playing and it all looks fun there. This place is a perfect idea for big companies of friends, families, couples - I simply recommend it...

Read moreMy Airbnb was not quite ready yet, so I came here to have lunch. It's conveniently located near the apartment. Since it's my first time here in Vilnius and not familiar with the area yet, so I opted for the closest.
The restaurant does have indoor and a few tables outdoor l, but I decided to sit inside since its bit a windy and chilly.
The staff were nice and with a smile when I walked. Since I had my luggage with I wanted to know if it's okay. It's fine with them, and I can sit anywhere. It's a great start so far.
But once I had my pizza, it was a total disappointment and a letdown. The pizza crust was thin but doughy and chewy, more like a cardboard. It wasn't bad, but it reminded me of my high school. On the positive note, the local draft beer was crisp blonde, and it was great.
I dont think I coming back here for the food. The service staff,...
