"Pedimos a domicilio una pizza grande de jamón, vino con en queso para cualquier lado (culpa también de la cantidad enorme de queso que tiene). Les mandé una foto, ya que era la primera vez que pedía a domicilio, y le mandaron una pizza chica mitad margarita, mitad provolone, riquísimas ambas. Si bien mí mensaje no fue para que me mandarán algo, habla bien del restaurante aceptar su equivocación y ofrecer una compensación. Se aprecia como cliente que le presten atención a tu reclamo."

"Impecable! Es nuestra segunda visita cuando visitamos Buenos Aires. El lugar es muy lindo, tranquilo, en las 2 visitas comimos afuera porque el clima estaba ideal para disfrutar afuera en las mesas... La mesera que nos atendió muy servicial. Recomiendo el lugar, las pizzas muy abundante, la cerveza a su temperatura con una funda muy simpática! Obviamente que volveremos si estamos por Buenos Aires!"

"Un lindo restaurante en pleno Abasto. Se especializan en pizza pero tienen otras cosas típicas. Pedimos una chica de roquefort ($ 18000) que era riquísima, así como también las empanadas de carne y humita al horno ($ 1800). Tienen bebidas grandes. Te dan una panera con pan de pizza y un dip de chimichurri. Nos atendió un mozo muy copado y simpático mientras veíamos el último partido oficial de Messi en Argentina contra Venezuela por la eliminatoria. Una opción muy económica en precio y calidad, y vamos a volver."
