    We have experienced the very neapoletan tasty pizza in Dublin. Little detail, we come from the amazing city where everything took place, Naples, so we consider ourselves highly entitled to say so. Congratulations on a very well job done to the guys over there.

    Food was okay. A bit pricy for what you got, but it was Christmas, so that was okay. Service was kind, but very slow. Again it was Christmas so that was fine too. They added a service charge which is not customary in Ireland. Not cool. I was going to tip because again it was Christmas, but I don’t appreciate when it’s added already. We didn’t have a large group.
