"Siamo andati per la prima volta io mia moglie e mia figlia, una settimana fa e poi siamo ritornati stamattina... e devo dire che fanno un ottimo caffè (è detto da un napoletano, la dice lunga), abbiamo preso una pizzetta Margherita in teglia e una pizzetta fritta con salame e mozzarella, buonissime tutte e due, veramente buone e fatte bene. Il barista Maurizio è stato molto gentile garbato e professionale, la stessa cosa tutto lo staff. Comunque lo consiglio vivamente, ambiente sobrio ed accogliente staff competente cordiale e professionale."

"Aperitivo super gustato , da dare assolutamente una possibilità ai calzoni preparati da loro, tuttavia alcune pizzette del aperitivo erano un po’ fredde, per quanto riguarda il servizio super disponibili e l’ambiente pulito e moderno"
