Sharifa SulaimanNovember 20, 2017Very cozy neat restaurant. Remindes me of small, family run restaurants in London ❤️ the staff are wonderful and very friendly.. try their la roko salad it's delicious.
Sara AlOfaysanFebruary 20, 2016Authentic Napolian Pizzeria 💓 run by Saudi couple Sultan and Najla. The best in Riyadh so far. Reservation is required

ReemAugust 4, 2021We loved everything we ordered; Bruschetta, LA RUSTICA Pizza, Margherita Pizza and Spaghetti Pomodoro Fresco all were good.
Ouhoud KFebruary 6, 2016Cozy atmosphere, authentic delicious pizza. A trip to Napoli in the heart of Riyadh gives you a fresh breeze. The owner and chef is a wonderful woman.
I don't know what to start with. Is it the cozy atmosphere? Great yummy salads and pizza? The nice couple who owns the place 💓? All of the salads are great specially burrata. Pizza as well 💓💓💓💓
.June 28, 2018Burrata cheese is a must. Pizzas are good, light and freshly made. Cozy atmosphere and good service.
Service is perfect. The restaurant has changed a lot I would recommend Truffle and Burrata pizzas they are amazing. Linguine Pasta is a must and for starters go with Arancini and Provolone.
FaisalApril 1, 2016The best pizza ever had in Riyadh also in Saudi Arabia , the owner of the restaurant is really a gentleman .
Shatha TOctober 9, 2019One of my favorite pizza restaurants . In love with the truffle pizza , rocca salad and the garlic bread with tomato sauce it’s soo delicious .
Dalal A ♏️August 26, 2017Pizza is yummy, thin and light. The crust is a little chewy rather than crispy. Friendly, attentive and fast service. The only minus is the uncomfortable wooden chairs. Provide cushions maybe?
Salim AMarch 4, 2022One of the best finest Italian restaurant, the minute you step in you will feel really you are in Italy the vibes of the atmosphere of it and taste of food really should not be missed 🤍👏🏻
شهدAugust 27, 2022Great atmosphere and vibes, i ordered pepperoni pizza 7/10, burrata pizza 6/10, linguine truffle 5/10, arancini 2/10. Not the best but not bad also.
Nora AlsalehApril 1, 2016The appetizers and pizza are so delicious, one of the best in Riyadh it taste the same as the ones in Italy! The ingredients used are from Italy from what I understood from the owner
It's a very gd rest.But due to its small capacity, waiters will stand above u table all the time trying to rush u out, so they can use the table.Very uncomfortable and annoying.this is a deal breaker
Their burrata, truffle pizza, and pesto pasta were all delicious! Cozy setting and welcoming staff, it is still one of the best Italian pizzerias in Riyadh 😍
NuhaNovember 23, 2016Cozy and authentic place but small ... I love the simplicity of the decoration and music. Pizza taste is just like Venetian pizza ❤️, I ordered pepperoni with sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms adds-on
Amal SAugust 23, 2016Well… it's ranked # 1 pizza in Riyadh for a reason! The burrata is amazing, too. Would have enjoyed a cappuccino if they had any.
Rayan IbrahimFebruary 10, 2017Best pizza in Riyadh so far we tried the margarita and vegetarian pizza and they were delicious don't forget to order the cream brûlée

Hayfa AlNuwaiserJuly 29, 2016The best and most delicious pizza I've ever had.Easy to choose and totally worth the search, try to pepperoni and rocca pizza also the la rustica pizza, this place is a miracle in the world of pizza.
Greatest pizza in GCC ✋🏼. #EnoughSaid Rocca Salad, La rustica pizza and pepperoni 👌🏼👌🏼 it's delicious and so light.

Abdulaziz AlamidOctober 26, 2016Simple yet magical atmosphere. Very cozy and comfortable. I ordered the classic pepperoni and it was great. If I can give you one advice, you MUST try their outstanding chilli oil! Remember, you MUST!

- Lama AlsadoonAugust 2, 2019Great food, cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. I am defiantly coming back to this place again, the pizza was light and crunchy and their desserts yummmmmy defiantly try the tiramisu and the cannoli.
I can confidently say that it was an experience that surpassed all expectations. From the exceptional service provided by the amazing host Nora, to the mouthwatering pizza on offer.
⋆ ☽January 15, 2022Super yummy pizza & pasta ,you can definitely taste the traditional Italian flavor.I recommend trying the la Rustica pizza ,however the forno bread tasted burned and arancini balls were under average- MauroJuly 3, 2021Spaghetti al pomodoro were good but could have been more abundant as portion especially at 60SR. Arancini (3, small) at 39SR is an absolute no. Ambiance is alright. Speed of service was good.
Alanoud MohammedAugust 17, 2016Friendly staff, neat and tidy, i really wish them to keep up the upscale service and unique Italian taste
AbdullahJune 29, 2016Cozy and quite and the taste of pizza is amazing overpriced little bit but worth it ❤️
