After a long day of sightseeing, we were really looking forward to trying this pizza place but omg, when I tell you everything about this place was horrendous, it is a gross understatement…..
The service itself took over 1/2 hour (for take away) with only one guy ahead of us waiting for his order. There were two guys working, one handling the orders, the other working the pizza oven. One kept rubbing his forehead and the other brushing his hands through his hair and touching the order screen. I wouldn’t care about this except that they were both then preparing the pizzas at the same time (think Seinfeld Papi episode). I just hoped that the fire oven would burn off the dandruff and germs….
Then came the actual pizza (if one could even call it that). I’m not sure how someone can get margarita pizza wrong but this place managed to do just that (think the soggiest, undercooked pizza with two tiny pieces of basil). My partner got a pizza that was supposed to have Teeling Whisky aged salami on it and ended up taking it off the pizza because it tasted so bad. The crust was burnt in some areas and soggy in others (see pics). The focaccia was just a piece of greasy dough and the sauces were also below par, overall just a horrid (overpriced) experience.
Skip this place if you are in Dublin and go to a proper pub for a meal. I think the Spar (European version of a 7-Eleven) down the street would have had better late night food options….
