Vegitalian Pizzabar — Restaurant in Utrecht

We were here for a special occasion and each and every person of their small crew was well informed, subtly inquiring about how we wished to celebrate. You get a jug of tap water free of charge once you're seated and handed the menus. The menu offers something delightful for everyone and caters to all sizes: small eaters, small groups that like to share or just big eaters, classics like a Margherita pizza or a modern version pasta Ai funghi, it's all there. We ourselves were 2 and started with sharing a brushetta , cheesy garlic bread (it reminded us of a pizza bianca) and a melanzane ravioli with yellow bell pepper sauce and vegan Nduja. The brushetta was truly love at first bite and beautifully served. The cheesy garlic bread was indeed really lovely cheesy, the ravioli was delicious, the Ndjua was our first time trying it but you could easily skip eating it if it's not your thing. Our main was a pizza Margherita, a Napolitan style pizza that was so good! We also shared a pasta, rigatoni with leek and parmegiano, which was a different but unique delight as well. We finished off on a sweet bite with a chocolate mousse, heavenly might I add, and a vegan pistacchio tiramisù. The vegan pistacchio tiramisù was our least favorite, it was a bit heavy and a tad too sweet for our liking but of course this is a matter of personal taste. The staff was kind and attentive, they all spoke Dutch and could switch to English if needed. The location itself is cosy with dimmed to set a mood for enjoying good food and great company, the food is divine so eating here leaves you all set for a wonderful evening! They also have a list of...

Booked a table on a Friday evening (20H) Restaurant was extremely crowded so definitely recommend to book in advance Got seated immediately but had to wait over half an hour to get an order in, which was completely understandable with the amount of customers, but tables who got seated after us got to order first for some reason?

Leek & lemon rigatoni: delicious!! right amount of lemon flavour Cheesy Garlic Bread Pizzetta: a little garlic pizza, very good flavour, not too cheesy Mushroom ravioli: fillig was bland but sauce was good Burrata and fig: very simple (too simple?) Roasted cauliflower: good, nice sauce, crunchy chickpea was very delicious but cauliflower could've been cooked longer Moscow mule mocktail was delicious Tiramisu classico: good, classic dessert Frangipane & fig tartlet: very good cake, delicious vanilla ice cream, very nice frangipane filling, crunchy almonds shavings were a nice touch Amarena cherry cheesecake: served with rich chocolate ice cream, texture of the cheesecake was a bit too...

We ordered online for delivery and had the truffle pasta and the burrata pizza. The delivery was very quick, but the food was below average.

The Pizza was alright. We liked the amount of toppings and the dough had a great taste and texture. However, the dough was too thin in the middle and too thick on the crust, causing it to beak in the middle and not being able to handle the amount of toppings. Also there was a lot of oil on the pizza.

The truffle pasta ranks among the worst truffle pastas we ever had. It was around 60% mushrooms, and the rest pasta and lots of oil. The bottom 2cm of the bowl was pure oil, without any other sauce. There were many black sprinkles on top, but they didn’t taste like truffle at all and were crispy, not sure what it was or whether they roasted the truffle and thereby killing the aroma.

Might try a pizza again at some point but won’t try...
