Very busy, quite hipster in atmosphere and attempted style. Really nice waiters and waitresses. Beautiful setting but then the whole of benisalem square and surrounding area is beautiful. The food here is fairly basic, good and fresh, nice menu, good ingredients, great croquettes, I had to almost beg to get a table for me and family as we hadn't booked, but fair play they did seat us although made sure we knew they needed the table in 1 hour 30 mins. Now, it's a pizzeria, they seemed to have a pizza oven, but I have to mention the pizza bases. To put into context, I own a big green egg, which goes to 600c no probs, I make my own pizza base from scratch, it's very easy, use 00 pasta flour, yeast, salt, sugar, olive oil, luke warm water, kneed and prove for an hour, hand stretch, make pizzas, dough is crispy and fluffy inside. Es P'dal pizza bases, hmm more like a cornish pasty dough, not doughy at all, brittle, more like pastry, you couldn't fold it, its a real shame, its like pie crust. I would happily give them a recipe or even spend an hour in the kitchen showing them how to make perfect pizza dough, that would earn them 5...
Read moreRaw chicken came out in a nugget for our youngest daughter. No apology, just re-heated the raw part and plonked it down again. They didn’t think to remove from the bill which is common practice obviously. Nice building, looks like it could be great but falls short in every area in comparison to genuine hospitality and tasty food establishments in other parts of the world.
Professes to be a pizza joint but the pizzas are dry, like they are prepared on a rich tea biscuit, you know the type I’m talking about. No passion, no flare and definitely no love.
You know when you can do better yourself when your cupboards are not even stocked.
Why pay for the privilege of mediocre food which you wouldn’t accept in your own kitchen at home? Really p@sses me off when restaurants miss the point of being a professional eatery.
Would avoid this place, unless it’s the only thing open. Even then I would check below the bread crumbs on a nugget to make sure salmonella is not lurking.
If you see that sign “no music no life” just remember that if you eat one of those nuggets you...
Read moreAppalled. Our daughters chicken nuggets arrived on the table raw inside. I mentioned to waitress who quickly took plate without any care or apologies and within a couple minutes she had put the same plate back on the table after deep frying exact same nuggets. Over cooked now like tough almost inedible crunchy battered plastic texture. No sincere apologies or embarrassment that they’d served us with raw chicken. Then proceeded to charge us for the inconvenience , I’m used to establishments feeling a sense of pride in their service and if there is a problem for it to be remedied not at the expense of the customer! Then we were rushed out to accommodate next customers in waiting… appalling food , service but nice decor and setting in a sweet village. If only it was up to standard of some cities, it would be a true gem of a place. Won’t be back
