Summary: Disappointing experience, avoid this place, there are many high-end pizza restaurants in the area that deliver great quality and service.
For close to $75 for 1 starter, 2 pizza's and 2 cocktails, I would expect a better quality and much better service.
We started with cocktails, which were okay but not excellent, and the Arancini starter. The Arancini balls were not bad, but a bit boring. Since we ordered them to share, it would have been nice if we each had a plate to put them on, instead of eating them out of a bowl in the center of the table.
While the toppings appear to be good quality and the selection is okay, the pizza itself leaves much to be desired. The crust is lifeless and dense, no nice air pockets and with a bready interior - in places brown to the point of being burned, but not in a nice way. Some of the topping was under cooked, and not all cheese was melted.
After commenting on this to our waitress, I was informed that 'it is just their style of pizza'.
Also, I guess it is their style to only let guest have one drink, at no point were we asked whether we would like another drink, even though we finished ours before our main course arrived.
When asking for the check and a box to take the left over pizza, even though 3/4 pizza was left uneaten we got a small box that we had to stuff the pizza in ourselves.
p.s. I'm pretty sure the goats' cheese was actually ricotta. It had not much flavor at all.
EDIT: I was contacted by one the the managers of the restaurant and was informed that the experience I had was not standard. The way that this manager dealt with my complaint was exemplary - they offered their apologies for the substandard food and service, and extended an invitation to give them a second chance (and a gift card for the value of the original visit). I will go again at some point in the future and I will update the review accordingly.
