Very popular neighbourhood pizza place. Book ahead if you want a guaranteed table. Now during…read moreCOVID-19, I believe they do ask you to book ahead. Else, you can also order pick-up via their app. With the app, you just pay in-app, choose pick-up time and location (Summertown or Jericho), then just show them your confirmation number when you get there. Pizza is not bad. Each is thin and light enough that even a person with a light appetite can finish one whole by themself. Pasta dishes are more generously portioned. I found the margherita has way too much sauce and tomatoes, which make everything but the outer edge a soggy mess since the crust is super thin. With less sauce-heavy pizzas, however, the crust is more like a thin cracker. I prefer the prosciutto cotto e funghi. If you crave a more bread-y and robust crust, and perhaps more value for money, there are other places to try. Overall, good place for artisanal pizza. Staff was so-so. Maybe it was my bad luck, but when I visited, there were 4 waiters standing around, more two of who saw us walk up and wait by the "Wait to be Seated." Rather greet us and acknowledge us by telling us someone would be by to help us, they just each walked by and stared, then clustered around one another, including the one who would eventually come out to help us. There were only about 5 tables total when I went, and clearly the staff weren't overwhelmed if they were all gathered around one another just looking around.

We had our sites on another eatery, however thankfully for us we found this gem instead! Do not expect aircon inside, however you will be greeted with friendly staff, pleasant tasting food and plenty of tables inside and out to dine. Cuisine took me back to some places I visited in Italy, and the staff's Italian between one another I think also influenced my experience! Their pizza is FAN-tis-tico!

Summer in Oxford feels like summer at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco -- tourist-ridden. While…read morerestaurants on the high street offered refuge from the crowds (and the unusual UK heat wave), I was craving something a bit more unique to Oxford. Alas, there's a location in London as well. But this cozy, homey pizza restaurant certainly stood out from the dozens of chain restaurants that we had walked past earlier. The restaurant's interior, with tasteful splashes of color, feels a bit like an Italian grandmother's kitchen -- imagine shelves full of pasta boxes. After an early morning visit to the Ashmolean Museum, we got there shortly after 12:30 p.m., which means that we had just missed the lunch rush. I doubt it would have been a problem had we decided to dine earlier, as there are plenty of tables in the restaurant. The pizzas are rectangular and come in both whole and half versions. (Buongiorno E Buonasera encourages you to order the latter so you can share.) There's a sign somewhere in the restaurant that derides untraditional pizza -- I can't remember what pizza blasphemy it cites, but pineapple on pizza, chicken on pizza... you know the drill. As I don't eat red meat (part of me wished that they served a pizza with chicken, but c'est la vie...), I mentally prepared myself to order a margherita pizza. Which, you know, is delicious in its own right, but I wanted something a bit more daring. I shouldn't have worried. Still authentic, the vivace pizza checked all of my boxes: tomato sauce, mozzarella, peppers, chili, and basil. An extremely filling lunch for less than £10!

You pass by the pizza ovens in the front, so you can see the work going into your food. We were seated in the upstairs portion (not sure if there's seating downstairs since now that I think about it, it was only staff heading down the stairs at the back). We'd been visiting a few pubs before our 7:30 booking, so we immediately ordered our main dishes. I got the spaghetti alla puttanesca, Jimmy got the Pizza de Mario (has to be good if it has the business name in it, right?), and Jane got the tortelloni alla calabrese. J and J also had the house wine, a montepulciano, that much improved with breathing. The food arrived fairly quickly, and all was delicious. The puttanesca, with olives, capers, and anchovies had a nice briny taste. The cream sauce on the tortelloni was divine - balanced between the cream and the tang of the tomato, very comforting. The pizza with bacon and sausage, artichokes, olives, was nicely crisp on the bottom and not too sweet on the sauce. We left all the plates clean! Prices seem quite reasonable for the quality of the food and the portion size.

I saw this spot accidentally and decided to try it because I absolutely love, I mean love sourdough bread, now when I realized they made sourdough pizza I had to try this spot, and I was glad I did! The pizza was interesting, good interesting, the sourdough was chewy, and delicious. I would try to get a basic pizza next time (tomato sauce and basil and see how that goes); the chicken with potatoes pizza was not a good combo in my opinion but that's just me. The sourdough was so good so I decided to give it a 5 stars. Their tiramisu was unique, not that good but not bad either. For this I would give the spot a 4 stars Their customer service was excellent - 5 stars Interior is cute, bright, inviting - 5 stars Overall 4.5 stars for the unique experience and food :)

If you like your normal unadulterated pizza toppings then this might not be the place for you, but if the thought of a curry on a pizza; a fry up on a pizza; a roast dinner on a pizza; or a Greek salad on a pizza intrigues or excites you then you should check this place out. Not quite a odd as it sounds (for example it's not literally a whole roast dinner on top of the pizza, more just some of the elements from it (but including roast potatoes!)). It seems that they've thought hard about what tastes would work well together. The pizzas are grouped by continent and each one name after a city within that continent. I had the Marrakesh which was lamb with yogurt, soft cheese, onions and raisins. Delicious!
