Il Pastaiolo is where you can find the most delicious Italian takeaway!…read more Lunch: Delicious sandwiches and pizza! One sandwich will cost you around €4.50 and you have so many options - my favorite is the bresaola on focaccia with olive oil and lemon juice and my husband always orders the vitello tonnato. If I'm not in the mood for sandwiches I'll order a slice of fresh pizza which goes for €2.50 for a quarter slice. Dinner: Where to begin! So many pastas and other dishes that you can take home to enjoy later for dinner. Often I will come by on a Friday and just buy a lot of meat, cheese, and olives to enjoy with a fresh loaf of ciabatta. With the leftovers I like to use them as toppings for homemade pizza the next evening. Il Pastaiola also boasts a great Italian wine offering to compliment your meal. Everything I've tried had been delicious! Don't forget that Fridays and Saturdays are super busy and you need to take a number. You also can find the menu online and call ahead if you're short on time!

Inspired by a Yelping hand, I went to the restaurant solo. So many good reviews, right around my…read morecorner, cheap menu for food. So OK, I walk in this really nice and trendy hot spot. You really have no feeling that you are in a pizzeria, what so ever. Since I'm by myself I'm having no trouble sitting at the bar (YES! Finally a Belgian restaurant where you can sit at the bar). I received the menu quickly and got presented the specials for the evening. They have great wines by the glass so I order a white 6 Mura and pizza with rucola, Parmesan and Italian ham. When they bring my 7.5 EUR glass of wine, I'm a bit disappointed. The glass was barely filled. I understand when you serve special wines by the glass they are a tad more expensive but this is just to little. But OK, I won't bother myself and as a good Yelper, I check in. FYI: Asked for the WIFI-password! They will be happy to give it to you! Immediately a friend (Bart D) responds if he can join me with friend (Myriam G). Off course they can join so I ask the waitress if it's OK if they join me for a glass. That won't be a problem but they have to within the hour because they are fully booked which we understand off course. When Bart sees my pizza, he just can't let it pass by and orders one for himself too. The staff didn't really bother that and took his order. We had a couple drinks more and the staff never really asked us to leave until 2 hours later. Which is a big plus knowing that they at first wanted us out within the hour. When the bill arrived... I was thinking on faking a heart attack... Although I guess i had a small one when i saw it. 2 wines, 1 pizza and 1 Montenegro liquor (AMAZING taste) has cost me 40 EUR! And i wasn't even drunk. But i had a great time, the pizza was great and the wines where very tasteful nonetheless there wasn't much in the glass.

It was absolutely delicious. The place is very small but beautifully decorated. Make sure you make a reservation before you go though as it will be fully reserved quite fast. Oh and you can also order pizza's to take away. I'm praying for the day that they join royal delivery so thath I can eat them at home as well.

Fresh, so fresh!…read more That is the best way I can describe the food you get on your plate. Besides the fact that it has an open kitchen so you can see how they are preparing your dish, you can taste the freshness of their ingredients that are visible in the counter. The pasta itself is cooked as it should. If you bite it, it feels tender in the mouth, yet with a little bite to it. Just how it supposed to be. (Instead of that mushy pasta most places serve.) Every week there are new pasta suggestions. And the pizza's? they stick to the basics, that way you'll also taste the toppings AND the pizza itself. You can surely taste the difference with other pizza places. Deffinitely a must go! The price range of pizzas & pastas is between €13 - €18 (give or take..)

They have an amazing wood oven (394C by the temperature reader! ) and the pizzas were very tasty. The open kitchen was fun for the kiddo to watch, and the chef kindly entertained him with the fresh hot pizza mock attack! The burrata with basil and tomatoes were creamy totally delish on bread. However, the menu photos showed the burrata coming with fresh focaccia, and what showed up were slices of baguette shaped bread chunks. When we inquired with the server, she just said "yeah, it's different" and didn't do anything about it. At check out, when I showed her the Yelp checkin coupon, also got the response that it can't be used. Sadly made the whole experience not as wonderful despite the tasty food.

I strongly recommend their pesto sauce with mozzarella and the toppings of your choice (mushrooms, peppers, & arugula for me). The only reason I wouldn't give a 5th star is due to my feeling that the marinara sauce is spread a bit thin on the crust and doesn't quite give the flavor impact I would like but it's a minor criticism for an otherwise great little pizza shop.
