   The service was excellent, we actually made a mistake on the tip and would love to know how we can add an extra $20 if it is possible. The food was not as good as usual, we’ve been going to Mozza for many years and always loved the food but this time the pizzas were very oily and the salad was not the same

   The service was absolutely lovely. Flawless. As for the food, the eggplant was good, not great, the calamari, the same. Both tasty, but not special. The margherita pizza was very good, but the pineapple, jalapeno and speck pizza was not quite as expected. I was anticipating something spicy, salty and sweet, and felt the dominant flavour was the sweetness of the pineapple, so it wasn’t quite as hoped for. I was offered something else, which I appreciated but declined. It takes 1/2 hour for them to make a pizza, and I didn’t want to wait that long. I don’t mind waiting initially, but my husband would have been done for ages by the time it arrived. ANYWAY- The crust on both pizzas was completely terrific. They absolutely know what they’re doing, but that’s no surprise. Nancy is Queen of Dough. We finished with the sundae with vanilla gelato, chocolate sauce and caramel. Incredible. Hands down, the best vanilla ice cream I’ve EVER had. The dessert made the meal, which was already pretty good, if not amazing. We figure we’ll go back to Osteria Mozza next door, which we’ve visited a couple of times, and which we now feel is a better restaurant, if more expensive.

   All of the food was excellent. These were among the handful of best pizzas we've ever had anywhere!

   I can’t believe I’m going to say these things about one of our if not our very most favorite restaurants. This is the second time we made a reservation and when arrived in time, were made to wait over 15 minutes for our table. Our reservation was at 8:15. The restaurant was bulging with people both waiting and seated. We were told we could sit at the bar (which there were obviously no seats available,) or go next door to the other restaurant to wait. My family all noticed the host wasn’t particularly friendly about it and unashamedly unapologetic. At least perhaps the offer of a glass of wine or something would have softened the blow of standing around. When seated, our waiter had an attitude. This was disappointing after already waiting uncomfortably and in the past we had such positive experiences. When we got our first item, zucchini, it was prepared oddly, which we sent back. It was served cold. Soon after we received our appetizers, the server came over and quickly said this was last call and the kitchen was closing. What? We hadn’t even received our second course (pizza). I asked about dessert and he said that would be possible. I said it was too bad that we got seated so late after our reservation time because this was rushed. He replied harshly that this was it, and the kitchen was “Fini” for the night. We couldn’t believe his rudeness. After that, one of the other servers who seemed to be assisting, Alfonso, was very warm and nice and made us feel at home. Overall, the food was good, but not as good as other times. Perhaps they were all worn out. We shared pane bianca, which is always delicious, and sweet potatoes, both were luck warm and not as fresh tasting as usual. My husband had the chop salad, which he liked, and My son and I shared a pizza, also good. I asked the waiter for a red wine recommendation, and he recommended the most expensive one ($30 cabernet), and did not offer a taste. Will be back, but……

   Great food & experience. We sat at the counter, and enjoyed watching the food prep. Quite a tight squeeze there was our only quibble. Otherwise, perfect.

   This fell a little below our expectations. We reserved two tables. One was ready at our appointed time. The other wasn’t ready until 30 minutes after our reservation, so our dinner got off to an uneven start. I had to actively follow up with the host to get seated when we saw the table was open for a long time. The margherita pizza came out cold and the funghi pizza was heavy on the salt. Beyond that, everything was solid but nothing wowed us. Overall a good meal but didn’t quite line up to what we paid for in my opinion.
