"Was invited for Dinner.
Loved the interiors- beautiful woodfire pizza oven, wooden interiors and gorgeous chandeliers.
Excellent company made the food even better.
The service was nice. Friendly young girl.
Food was fresh, oh the tomatoes and their freshness, huge portions and taste bang on.
The Buratta was soo good.
Definitely worth a visit to eat good hearty Italian food and pls only share. It's the best way to eat."

"I heard from many friends about this place. The interior is really special, high ceilings, rustic feelings and thematic. The service was a bit slow, but maybe because it was a busy night. We had to wait quite a while for our pizzas. Calamaris where delicious, not too salty. Bruschetta and focaccia a bit of a let down, as it has the same pizza dough. So we had pizza as starters to share and more pizza as main… most of the pizzas were good, great crust and thin. Mine just tasted a bit too salty. Dessert was really nice though, the tiramisu was amazing. Maybe my expectations were high, but it was just an okay experience not bad, but not excellent."

"Escape to Italy through a single door.
It’s weird that when you see a place from the outside it’s not at all what you expect it would look like on the inside.
With its rich and historic setting, O’Pazzo really does a great job at taking you out of your Dutch reality and putting you in Italy.
From their drinks, to their desserts, they remain true to the Italian cuisine and they do it well.
My rating is purely based on my experience from previous Italian places and I rate it for what it is.
The food is good, but not exceptional. It has simple flavours that make you go “mmmm, this is good”. I would have liked the Tiramisu to have the same punch in flavour as it has in presentation.
What really makes this experience unique is the ambience that is created inside the building. You’re taking a step back in time with stunning art all around you and this amazing music when you go to the bathroom.
They are a little bit above average when it comes to food prices (not drink), but it’s okay to pay that if you take a moment to appreciate the work they’ve done to make you feel like you’re not in the Netherlands.
This place can easily become a regular spot as it’s simple and sophisticated."

Beste Italiaanse restaurants in Rotterdam
Het Italiaanse restaurant O’pazzo in Rotterdam is een hotspot waar we maar wat graag komen. Je kunt bij O’pazzo terecht voor heerlijke traditionele pasta’s en pizza’s, maar dit is ook een top plekje voor als je een wijnliefhebber bent. Zo biedt het restaurant bijvoorbeeld een high wine aan, waarbij je 4 glazen (met een Award bekroonde) huiswijn geserveerd krijgt en een selectie van de antipasti.
5x puike pizza in Rotterdam
Hier geen verkaste Italiaanse familie achter de pannen, maar een succesvolle horecagroep die gewoon weer wat-ie doet. O’Pazzo is geïnspireerd op het energieke Napels en ook de pizza’s zijn dat, maar de bodem zal de keuring van de strenge AVPN niet doorkomen en neigt iets meer naar de Romeinse variant. Dat maakt geen bal uit, want de pizza’s zijn wel goed en de tenten (zijn er twee) gezellig.

Waar je bij Old Scuola en Burro e Salvia de Napolitaanse pizza eet, serveert O’Pazzo pizza’s met dunne korst. Midden in het centrum van Rotterdam in een sfeervol pand en met een heerlijk terras kom je hier tijdens je pizza-date aan gezellige omgeving in ieder geval niet tekort. De kaart staat bomvol pizza’s en er wordt echt aan iedereen gedacht qua ingrediënten en toppings.

In het traditionele restaurant voelt het een beetje aan alsof je bij een oude Italiaanse oma op bezoek bent. Uit de gloednieuwe extravagante oven (geïnspireerd op een vulkaan) verschijnen de meest knapperige pizza’s. Ook zijn ze bij O’Pazzo veel bezig met duurzaamheid, dus bepaalde vis- en vleessoorten vind je niet meer op de menukaart.

The Dutch love efficiency, so when you read (Dutch) reviews on O’Pazzo you will most likely read about the bad service. It is not bad, it is just….Italian. So take your time, don’t rush or get mad and enjoy the food and the awkward interior.
