Occasionally you stumble across an absolute gem of a restaurant, something that is truly special. From the moment I walked in, I loved this place. The feel of it is simple, unpretentious, comfortable, welcoming. Owner Shelly instantly made us feel like we were regulars with her warmth and friendliness.The menu is not too small, or too big, and filled with an inviting selection of dishes that literally scream 'eat me!' It's authentic Napoletana style pizza and a seasonally-driven bistro menu, all freshly and perfectly prepared by Matt in the kitchen. It's not often I find a chef who delivers such extraordinary tastes, that I wished I could just keep on ordering more. The only way to solve that problem was going back - a total of 3 times in one weekend. I only wished I lived closer so I could go every week. These beautiful folk have changed the way I view brussel sprouts forever - that dish of theirs is just ridiculously morish!

Since no staffmember cared enough to ask us how our food or dining experience was, I will share it here. It lacked on every level. We made an online reservation, left my contact-info for them. When we arrived they told us there was only 1 pizza dough left. You could/should have contacted us before arrival about that, since you are a pizzeria. People intend to eat pizza.We figured out our starters, but apperently one is made out of pizza dough, so not an option if we still wanted that 1 pizza. Ok, we chose another starter. We had sweetcorn, wich was delicious and brie out of the oven. Not french brie but still ok. Except the spoon they served it with was not clean. We mentioned it and instead of an apology the staffmember got defensive and explained how it happened. The spoon touched 2 of our breadslices but that did not seem to be bothering her.We asked to wait a little time before our main, pizza vegetariana, came. The staffmember we asked earlier reacted suprised. In the meantime our drinks were finished for at least 5 minutes and we had to ask ourselves for a new drink.When the pizza came it was wet. The toppings just came sliding of the dough. We think the pizza had been waiting 20 minutes, with all toppings on it, before it went into the oven.Again, when they removed our plate, no questions asked.We are just passing through here, and I think many people do, so they won't bother to ask how you think the food is, they still have enough travellers as costumers.

A really great location and lovely view from our table overlooking the beach. The baked camembert is delicious, we also really enjoyed the short ribs. Wine list is interesting offering wines we hadn't tried before. We enjoyed our wines.

Amazing location, great food and friendly staff. All the pizzas were delicious, and the baked cheese is a must try.Book ahead if you are coming here during a holiday or weekend as this place gets busy!

Absolutely beautiful interior, would make for a great date or family dinner! There is a great menu and range of beverages. I got takeaway which was great! Fast and super friendly pizza, definitely somewhere I’ll be coming back too! I recommend to at least try this place and go out of your way! Super worth it!!! Oh and did I mention the staff were super friendly straight from arrival to getting my pizza!

A fantastic pizza place that produces exceptional authentic italian pizza. The tables inside are well spaced giving a very pleasant ambiance. The deck directly overlooks the ocean which is one of the most pleasant feels any restaurant can offer. Highly recommended to all locals and travelers. I personally had the salmone and loved it. The Chef and staff are really friendly and will welcome you to have a chat if you feel like it, especially if you want to hear the story behind the name of the pizza Salmone!
