About

Amazing authentic Italian pizza with fresh mozzarella and delicious homemade tomato sauce at better prices than other pizzerias in town. Food is fresh and delicious, worth the wait from minimal staff. Interior is a bit rundown but the quality is just as good or better.

    Slow service as minimal staff but worth the wait. The food was fresh and delicious. Interior ABIT rundown.

    Extremely underwhelming experience, both food wise and atmosphere. It might have been a good restaurant back in the days, but the level of food you serve for the price is very disappointing. Please give it some effort at least.

    Very good. One of the best in malindi. Incredible fillet of beef and incredible grilled lobster. Pizza was also delicious. Would recommend. Also great service.

    Amazing pizza! Authentic Italian pizza with fresh mozzarella and a delicious homemade tomato sauce. Prices are better than at any of the other pizzerias in town, but the quality is just as good (if not better!)
