Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We ordered our drinks, they were full of water and ice... The pizza had no mozzarella... The service was the worse...we waited a lot... The toilets were dirty.

Restaurant forgets your order, and waiter keeps saying “Yes” everytime when questioned. After 1h:20m of Waiting, i left. Everyone else at my table was served. They inexplicably ignored one of the orders, and the language barrier was imposibile.

This is the best pizza I've eaten in Cluj so far, with cornicione and fresh ingredients! Cozy place, service was very professional and kind and fair prices. Rooms aren't big, so a little bit noisy when they're full. Don't miss also the cannolo, you are...warned!!!More

This was the 2nd time (trip) to Cluj at this restaurant. The first time, we were told by the Hampton Inn people (down the street) to check it out. I purposely booked the same hotel JUST so that I can eat a pizza at this...place again. I would dare say that I have a higher knowledge and respect for Neapolitan (hot wood oven) style pizza, since I myself bought a substantial pizza oven, studying multiple dough recipes during the pandemic and to to Italy on a regular basis etc. This place in Romania (!) not known for any pizza, blows away some of the best Italian restaurants in Italy or USA. The dough is perfect! It's soft and chewy, and everything super fresh. I ordered the plain, no meat, Margherita and it was perfect! The staff, very nice (mostly girls) and very welcoming. This trip, I was 'solo' and so I did not order a pasta dish, but I can also say that my son and I each had a pasta dish the last visit, then too, shockingly good! ("Shocking" because one would never expect such good (authentic) Italian style food outside of Italy, but it is! If I had to mention one (very minor) thing is that they could put more fresh basil on top. I could have asked for more, but no, I inhaled the whole thing in a few seconds. Still so, I am thankful NOT to have pizza like this near me (USA) or I would gain so much weight!!More

It was the best pizza in town, now it's the most expensive dough in Cluj. Few toppings on the pizza, mushrooms from water (don't expect this rare ingredient (mushrooms) to be fresh...), they bring orders to people that came after you, the owner laughed at...the phone when I said that I wanna have 2 pizzas to go and said to go there and closed the call... They are a joke now, good dough with cheap toppings, and only fake people with their noses in the sky....More

It’s the best pizza in town by far. If you love Neapolitan style pizza, then this is the place to go. The edge of the pizza is incredibly fluffy and the ingredients used are well chosen. I eat at least one pizza every week and...can’t get enough of it. ♥️More

Best pizza in Cluj! The place got recently renovated, has that Italian theme. The pizzas are extremely tasty and there are lots of pizzas from which you can choose. The waiters are nice, so overall a great restaurant and definitely the best pizza in Cluj!

Has a good reputation so I was surprised to be served 50% stone cold vegetables with my t-bone steak, which was otherwise ok. can't fault the friendly efficient service, but if the chef can't put out hot vegetables (I mean some were warm, others literally...stone cold, like from a fridge) either he/she is incompetent or doesn't care. Not recommended unless you have a high tolerance for that kind of thing!More

Over in Cluj for a few days and this pizzeria kept popping up as somewhere I should try. Service was brilliant and staff were wonderful. Really good value and i think it's the best pizza I've ever eaten-the dough was so soft and stringy almost...like mozzarella. These guys are doing a great job! Please visit for real pizza!More

First of all, I loved the garden...so so beautiful. I was really impressed, cuz I didnt see the photos before. We ordered 6 different pizza's like quatro formaggi, carnivore etc., extremely delicious, made like in Italy honestly. The sauce with olive oil and garlic amazing...the first time that I tried in that way made and the spicy one, was for real spicy. I liked that you can see the menu on our phone, they don't use the menu's cuz of Covid thing, so that's smart. After we ate the pizza's we tried their homemade cakes like they were made by our mom's at home. The prices super okay, the girl that served us super friendly and cute! Thanks for this experience!More
