The only seating consists of two barstools and a small counter, so not a place to hold a wedding or eat dinner. This is meant for take-out and maybe a slice on the go but, while I was there, there were no premade slices. I ordered a Roma which was made with ground beef, pepperoni, onions and gargonzola cheese atop marinara sauce and under a light coat of mozzerella. The meats, cheese and sauce were standard fare but the dough was quite good with crispy, sweet crust. With all the food options and leftovers from other restaurants which I preferred, I was not to be back during my visit. I am sorry to say that this pizzeria was just average to me. Mind you I had only one pie, I am American (we have stellar pizza) and others in the neighborhood do seem loyal.

The girl who took our orders was sweet and pleasant, the others seemed in a rush and were bringing us orders from other tables by mistake. The restaurant was busy, so that's understandable. The formaggio pizza we shared had the most delicious blend of cheeses on a perfectly soft thin crust. The dough was made with a good quality flour, it was easy to tell from the taste and texture. I had an Espresso Martini as a birthday treat and was really happy with it, It was sweet and delicious. Great experience all around and I'm really glad we stopped in.

For our first dinner in Oslo, we didn't want to go too far from the hotel to have dinner. Walking…read moredown the street we saw this little italian restaurant serving pizza. My friend had mentioned they had quite good pizza, and since the place wasn't busy, we decided to give it a try. The place is small, fitting around 12 to 15 people maximum and there was only one employee serving and making the pizza that day. I got the prosciutto pizza and my husband got the indiavolata pizza. The crust was freshly made and delicious but I would have loved more toppings on mine as I only had a few poor slices of prosciutto and not much cheese. For two individual pizzas, we paid 237 Kr, which is around 28$US. Note that tips are included so you don't need to give any if you don't want to. For those who don't want to eat in the restaurant, you can also buy it to go, which many people did while we were there. They have a large range of focaccia, polpette and lasagna as well. They also have different products that you can buy such as olive oil, pasta etc. The service was good and quite fast, despite the woman being alone doing everything.

Lively, but not loud. We had a nice chat with our server, Flavia, who turned out to be the "boss's (Fabio Pezzoli) daughter", and a delightful young woman! Fabio sent out a complimentary bruschetta for us to enjoy with our wine as we settled in. After hearing the specials and scouring the menu we ordered a pizza and a house made fettuccine with a creamy parmesan black pepper truffle sauce. Served with sliced truffles, it was a superb dish! I can honestly say that it was one of the best pasta dishes in recent memory! The pizza was thin, crispy and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed it. For dessert, I enjoyed an espresso and a perfect panna cotta. Caroline simply enjoyed her wine. We closed the restaurant after visiting with Fabio and his friend, a well-known local writer Erik Fosnes Hansen. It was a memorable evening and I'd not only highly recommend this local treasure, but would return in a heartbeat if in Oslo.

Conclusion, from a research point of view, the acid alkaline litmus test revealed a perfect balance exists here Now the rest ...... Scuse me but how does this place achieve such a high rating? I just don't get it, unless all who came before have yet to experience how good pizza can get. On the decor.... painting bare brickwork in whitewash and cardinal red, scattering random objects and plants around the shelves, with an Italian flag thrown in, does not a trattoria or even an osteria make. What I experienced was a tiny, noisy cellar with a random, cramped seating arrangement that sells from a limited & uninspired list of pizzas grilled (not baked) under what looked like an electric deck oven I had the Con Tutti (#13?) with carbonised trim on all the high spots and around the crust so if there was any other taste present it was masked by the flavour of burnt dough and marinara. Seems my pizza got a little too close to the grill, perhaps their peel paddle needs shaving? At least quarter cut it before you serve it as the eating irons provided failed to penetrate through the stodgy base and only served to shatter the crust and shower my plate with black ash (who ordered the Vesuvius?). Like a fool I got the house red wine but luckily it stripped my palate of the taste of ash. Total cost 229 Norwegian Krone, not even worth half that. One Star but they only got that so I could write this review ..... you know how it works

Girotondo is the kind of place where you walk in, climb the stairs, and immediately wonder if…read moreyou've just crashed someone else's dinner party. The tables are communal, so you'll likely end up shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers which, honestly, is half the fun. When I went, the room was buzzing like a Friday night in Rome. The staff was absolutely slammed, and after 20 minutes of waiting I did the classic "walk up to the bar and smile politely" move. Worked like a charm as service came quickly after that. Pro tip: patience is your friend here. I ordered the bruschetta pomodoro (simple, fresh, no notes) and a margherita pizza with ham. Not trying to reinvent Italian cuisine, but they nailed the classics and sometimes that's exactly what you need. So, if you like your dinner with a side of chaos, chatter from total strangers, and the feeling that you've stumbled onto a local secret, Girotono is worth the climb upstairs. Here's to another stamp on the tastebud passport!
