Reviews Summary

"DO NOT WALK OUTSIDE WITH YOUR SLICE OF PIZZA ON THE PAPER. EAT IT INSIDE OR TAKE IT IN A BOX.
Pizza for 3€ not bad. But they don’t tell you that it will be stolen by a seagull as soon as you step outside. The seagulls are waiting on the roofs above.
I’m so sorry to whoever this is. I wish someone was recording us when it happened to us. It happens so fast.
We went in to buy another 3€ slice and enjoyed it inside. 3 slices were stolen by seagulls in the 15-20 minutes we were there. One nice local couple bought a replacement piece for a kid who had a slice stolen."

"This was our very late night run.
Lots of locals would stop here and recommended everything.
The pizza was always crunchy and delicious. We visited 3 nights in a row and there was always a great local crowd."
Marcos U. Sierra
"After walking in the city all day, we reached this small pizzeria to finally eat something at a reasonable price. The pizza was tasty, and the slice was big. However, there's no seating inside or outside. It is a place where you can take away your pizza and eat it on the way. Overall, I was satisfied so I would go back but not when I am tired of walking all day."
