This is the best pizza I ever ate
Reviewed By Tim W
This pizzeria was within walking distance of the villa (Villa Sapphire) that we were staying at which was handy. Had antipasti followed by pizzas washed down with 50cl carafes of red and white house wine. Restaurant is Simple but feels comfortable, staff are friendly, pizzas are thin crust and tasty. Wine was inexpensive and therefore limited quality but fine with the pizzas. The pizza my wife had with pears, blue cheese and walnuts was especially tasty. Servings were large - staff happy to wrap uneaten food in a doggy bag for us to take away. Overall, a simple but reasonable quality meal.

This is a new place, just off the main tourist strip of Cortona's cute and busy foodie street, to the right if you walk down from the main roundabout/street side. We picked it because of all the locals sitting inside. The prices looked right and the smells coming from the restaurant were amazing.Antonio greeted us with pride for their food and a joy of what he did. We asked for help and he made the best recommendations for pizza. We ate it all! And it was very good portion sizes too! He also recommended a Sangiovese wine that went great with the pizza. The food was so tasty and authentic. For a new restaurant, they are doing very well, and hope they become a great success. If you choose to eat here it will be a delight for your tummy! (Fear not for food comas! Their cappuccinos are delicious too)

To be honest this was the worst restaurant we ate in during a week in Cortona.To be fair this is a restaurant which is geared for families with younger children with a focus on burgers and pizza - but we are not those but we tried it anyway.Asked for a half bottle of Sangiovese and got a carafe of a red wine - and not good quality - certainly nothing like the quaility of wines Iâve been served in other restaurants in Tuscany.Pasta was OK but very salty, main meal was certainly not. The salad and BBQ chicken comprised of three skewers of chicken (small ones) and a huge plate of lettuce- all for â¬10. My chicken dish was sliced chicken breast in a strange aromatic sauce - with fries. Really not that digestible. Didnât even stop for the dessert.So if you like pizza or burger then fill your boots. If you want anything else Italian donât bother, turn and walk another 20 yards to another restaurant

Seven Ristorante is "creative, delicate" New Italian cuisine is served by "enthusiastic" staff who treat diners "like kings" at this "unique". Chef Nino demonstrates "real flair" at this "stylish, chic".
Reviewed By Molloi
First off - food wise, it was alright. Nothing special. Prices are reasonable. Unfortunately while we were there it was nigh in impossible to get any service as the waiter/owner was fawning over one table and ignoring everyone else in the place. This wasn't "laid back" Italian culture, it was just a clear case of one group getting special treatment to the exclusion of all others. I wouldn't go back and even though it was convenient I'd rather travel further

Every time we visit Cortona, we make a point of visiting this restaurant. This is a family owned restaurant and the care and love is obvious. Service is always friendly and spot on. The best pizza with the thinnest crust. They can make any tweak that suits your fancy. Other requests are happily met. Hats off to Alessandro and his family.

We had just spent a long day touring a couple of Tuscanyâs hilltop towns and it was now pouring rain - our Cortona innkeeper recommended this restaurant to us so we wouldnât have to deal with parking by the historic area and walking to a restaurant. Glad she did. We had a wonderful Sunday night Motherâs Day dinner. Restaurant was filled with locals - I believe we were the only âtouristsâ there. My wife had a unique and wonderful tiramisu dessert.

We were trying to find a restaurant to have an early quick dinner in a restaurant because of our children. Unfortunately, everything in Cortona opens at 7 p.m. or later. We wanted to leave but we found this pleasant place opened where food was offered to us right after we put our heads in. We really appreciated the service and the food as well. They serve salads, pasta, pizza, panini etc. The food is offered throughout the day. I also liked the music played inside the bar.I really recommend it.
