What a cute, little, unexpected pizza and small plate Italian gem. It's tucked back on a pedestrian street, with a mouthwatering scent of garlic and herbs when you walk in.
There's a few tables inside and outside. The menu isn't huge but the food is outstanding. We tried the olives, burrata, and both the chicken and ham sandwiches. The foccacia bread for the sandwiches was amazing!
The staff is really friendly and quick. I highly recommend it if you want something different than the traditional Irish stop.

excelent service - waiter let us order even we were a little late for that but you know we are tourists 😅 after long day trip - thank you so much! pizza was really good and the cold beer. I really recommend this place!
Great Italian restaurant! The pasta was fresh and full of flavor, and the pizza was perfectly cooked with a crispy base. Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and good portion sizes. Definitely a place I would come back to and recommend to friends and family. 🍝🍕
