Pino risotto and pizza — Restaurant in Shilin District

Edit: I am revising my review. Came back to try the fried chicken and man! WOW!! It is delicious!!! Crispy, juicy!!! Man!!!

Come here for the fried chicken, avoid the pizza!!

Old review Downstairs is super loud. When i went, a bunch of kids were screaming and yelling. the restaurant has a play area, so naturally the kids want to play. it's not the restaurants fault, but i witness one of the kids use his own spoon to scoop up the ice cream and eat it there. the mom was too busy chatting. The restaurant should keep the ice cream away from the kids. now to the food. Ordered the Meat Lovers Pizza. Well, it had meat, but no love. It was the worse pizza i had. Maybe i'm use to american pizza? maybe the cheese was not what i was use to. but it was not good. USA 7/11 pizza is better. It was also really salty from all the cured meat. I saw everyone order the fried chicken so maybe thats the hot item. not the pizza. I had indigestion at night and couldn't sleep. I hate to give mom and pop shops such low marks. but i had to. it was not good.

Food: awful pizza, it's the same taste of a frozen pizza from the grocery but ten times the price, I ordered the big size of a margherita(550NT$=17€ more or less) really flaccid, greasy, unseasoned and the crust... the crust, it was like chewing a gummy uncooked pizza dough. Service: non existent at all, beside bringing you the pizza from upstairs (the kitchen and the wc are on the ground floor meanwhile the tables are underground) he did absolutely nothing, even to order if you don't use Line messaging app you have to go upstairs and order, and everytime you need something you have to go upstairs yourself(one thing that baffled me was that there's no olive oil whatsoever, and if you need it you have to ask in the kitchen, and that's impossibile to believe for a Pizzeria) Atmosphere: the only thing that is passable to be considered it a "real" Italian pizzeria, it feels like a traditional Osteria that you can find in the suburbs of any Italian cities.

Avoid it at all cost, especially when you have other really very impress alternative nearby(5 min...

They called it the best fried chicken in Tianmu, and it really lived up to the name.

The first floor was bright, while the B1 had a very American-style vibe with plenty of seating and even a kids’ playroom.

Drinks and ice cream were unlimited for 90 minutes. The ice cream was from Thailand’s Mingo brand, and my friend said every flavor was delicious.

All the pizzas were thin-crust with a fragrant and tasty base. The Margherita pizza was special, made with cherry tomatoes that were sweet and flavorful.

The U.S. beef garlic pizza was my favorite—the beef was tender like steak and paired perfectly with the garlic chips.

The fried chicken was amazing—thin crispy skin and super juicy inside. It was already well-seasoned with a marinade, so no extra pepper was needed. It was so good we even ordered another round!

The prices were reasonable, and the staff were polite and friendly. Definitely a place I...
