Reviews Summary

Il Locale is celebrated for its delicious, Brooklyn-style sourdough pizzas with creative toppings and a crispy crust. Diners appreciate the vibrant atmosphere and friendly service, with some highlighting excellent craft beer selections and complimentary birthday champagne. However, some reviews mention inconsistencies with pizza crusts, a lack of vegetable options, and unexpected charges for tap water.

"The pizza crust is so good, honestly. Love the casual atmosphere. The homemade lemonade had a surprising zing to it. Last time I ordered potato pizza and it was a bit bland for my taste, so I won't order it again. Other pizzas I tried were 10/10. Still so worth it, because of the perfect crust 🤩
Can't wait to be back. Keep up the good work 💪"

"I went with a friend and we had the #7 COTT' and #14 SPICY ILLO with burrata, along with some olives. The pizza was decent, though a bit on the dry side, nothing too special. But the service was nice, and the atmosphere was great!"

Chuang Sun

"Good beer, decent pizza. This place just opened up, and as one of the few pizza restraunts in Aarhus offering gluten free pizzas (my wife is celiac), we were excited to try it. The pizza is OK but not great. The best pizza in town is still definitely la piccolina, and since the cost the same it's hard not to compare. The crust (both regular and gluten free) was tough and chewy, and by the end of the meal my jaw was a little tired. The ingredients and sauce where also OK, but not amazing. Overall if you put this pizza in a take-away box and told me it was from a nearby kebab place I'd probably believe you. It doesn't taste like premium pizza, but it is as expensive. Not a bad pizza by any means, just not great and a bit cheap tasting. On the upside, the place is cute, very central, and has a great selection of craft beers (mostly from Brooklyn Brewery). Increase the quality of the pizza and this would be a five star for sure. For now, La Piccolina is still by far the best pizza in town."

Il Locale er inspireret af Brooklyn-style pizza, som blev taget med til USA i det 19. århundrede af italienske immigranter. Stilen er den samme på flere måder: Konkret med tykkere bunde og lækkert fyld, men også i den forstand at folkene bag Il Locale lader sig inspirere af lokale råvarer til pizzaerne – ligesom de italienske immigranter ændrede deres fyld i det nye land.
