    Best pizza place in Leipzig! No, really. I'm the queen of pizza and have eaten enough pizza to cover the state of Texas. The price is a bit expensive (16 euro per pizza), but worth the price. It's a small space (4 tables), so be sure to reserve your table ahead of time.

    Don't come here if you want to dine in a fancy restaurant. Coming here means you will: 1. Have some hard time looking for this restaurant. 2. Ask yourself constantly: is it a restaurant? 3. Have to squeeze yourself in the tiny space within this restaurant. 4. Get a chance to experience the "hospitality"of an overworked Italian who does everything by himself: cooking, waiting, charging. 5. Have to write down your order onto a small piece of paper under the dimming light. 6. Really just come here for a nice authentic neapolitan pizza using directly sourced Italian ingredients. 7. Have to hold yourself back from buying all the ingredients displayed in the glass cabinet. 8. Having to hold yourself from buying another bottle of house wine after finishing one already during your meal ... The choice is yours. Have fun anyway :)

    This is literally without exaggeration the best pizza i have ever eaten in my life!!! Its sooo authentic and absolutely delicious!! The owner does everything himself, from drinks to desserts and everything is so fresh!!! The restaurant is very small and cozy, it has only like 4 or 5 tables however its is absolutely original, everything about it the colors, the decorations, the furniture If you are looking to dine in a fancy restaurant, that’s definitely not the best choice for you, but if you are looking for something real, authentic and an overall heartwarming experience then you have to try this pizza place Its a bit pricey for what you usually can get in Leipzig, but in my opinion, for the experience of the atmosphere and the unbelievably delicious food, for me it’s totally worth it!!

    It's just a super authentic place, which must be visited. Pizza is top, however, I think that before corona he had some different recipe for tomaten sauce and sechs formaggi, which were tastier. Anyway, it's still delicious. We have been going there for a long time already. Reservation is a must.

    Just a window to order from. Pretty expensive for leipzig 14/15 euros a pizza. Not especially large, however, I was really full after finishing. The crust doesn't give up on you, and it tastes great (normally don't eat crust), the sauce tastes fresh and well seasoned, and the cheese also tastes of high quality. Top 2 or 3 pizza in Leipzig. Hesitating to say the best until I try more than one pizza.

    The best pizza I have eaten for years ❤️ Wonderful thin dough, great tomatoes, very tasty mozzarella and oil. Amazing experience.

    delightful Italian restaurant that stands as a testament to the passion and dedication of its sole proprietor. This small establishment, with its limited number of tables, offers an intimate and cozy dining experience that feels both inviting and exclusive. As you enter, the aroma of freshly baked pizzas fills the air, instantly transporting you to the heart of Italy. The restaurant operates on a self-service model for beverages, allowing guests to choose from a fridge filled with classic Italian beers. wines, while not outstanding, are sufficiently pleasing to complement the meals. highlight here is undoubtedly the pizza. It may not boast the traditional Naples stamp, but it’s a culinary delight in its own right Despite the simplicity of its operation, the restaurant exudes a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The owner, single-handedly running the show, adds a personal touch that makes the dining experience unique. this little Italian corner in Leipzig is a hidden gem for those in search of authentic Italian flavors. Also: try the tiramisu!

    The pizza is amazing! The ambiente also. Vine was OK but not very expensive. (which is good) Would recommend getting something puristic. Pricey, the owner tried to overcharge us, won't go here often, but still recommend

    Out of the world! Never had a pizza like this. There is just no comparison. The magic of top quality ingredients. Incredible Napoli speciale. The tomatoes!!!! Totally amazing. Stop searching: this is THE place. Super cozy atmosphere in rustic Italian decorum. Very few tables. Do reserve. Mega friendly pizzaiolo single handedly doing it all. Respect!

    This is an Italian restaurant run by one person. I found it strange that the owner cooks and serves with no help. For some strange reason, it works. Pizza is authentic Italian, a bit overpriced but delicious:)
