Never question it - always worth the wait. Hands down most authentic, delicious pizza & pasta rig outside Philly. Every time we visit, the entire experience is top notch from the food to the service. Already looking forward to the next time.

My husband and I moved to the US from Italy 2 months ago and we’ve already been here 3 times! It’s really super authentic Italian pizza - seriously, when we are here it really feels like we never left! Delicious taste, nice atmosphere, and very friendly staff. Big thanks to Lindsay who is always so nice and to Sal with whom it’s always a pleasure to have a chat in Italian! We’ll be back many many times more. 200% recommend!

This place is well worth the wait with a cozy environment and authentic wood oven that is the focal point. Expect to wait we came early at 5:30pm and sat at the bar. The Caesar salad is spectacular, but the highlight was the pizza and chicken Milanese. The pizza was perfect cooked with a crisp crust and melted cheese. And the chicken cutlet was ultra thin and crispy. We can’t wait to go back!

Cute little hidden gem in the neighborhood! The place is situated on a quiet road and I have driven by a few times in the last couple of years and thought it’s a place I’d like to try but I could never remember where I saw it. Finally one time I saved it on google map. Stopped in day and fell in love. The nice brick oven and friendly wait staff right away draw us in. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy and homely. Will def. come back again.

My husband and I had such a nice dinner here yesterday evening. We came in and sat right down at the bar seats. The staff is so friendly and accommodating & the food is incredibleeeee. We got some pizza, vodka rigatoni, and the Nutella donuts. All of which were fantastic! The atmosphere is very cozy and casual. A gem in the neighborhood!

This place is amazing! I’ll start with the staff here. The entire team there is incredible. They have a way about them that makes you feel like you are part of their family. I love that all the staff work together. It’s very common to have a few different people stop at your table and they are all so incredibly kind and fantastic at their jobs. The team in the kitchen is equally as incredible and friendly. The owner, who is all slinging pizzas at the speed of sound, always checks in at the people sitting at the bar to make sure they are enjoying their meals. 10/10 to the entire staff. Never change. The atmosphere. This is a small family owned restaurant. These places are becoming more and more scarce in our area. As the capital grills and big chains move in. Acqua E Farina and other family owned restaurants are the places we need to be supporting. Okay back to the review. This is an open kitchen where you can see the cooks making your food right in front of you. The brick oven is amazing. I would recommend sitting at the bar so you can see these masters at their craft go to work. BYOB is a great touch if you fancy yourself a nice glass of wine. The atmosphere makes you feel like you are a part of their big family. It’s feels like community comes together for dinner. 10/10 The food - this is the best food in Bucks County as far as I’m concerned. The pasta, the pizza and the Nutella donuts are absolutely incredible. All I can say is just go try it if you haven’t. You will not be disappointed. 10/10

The pizza was absolutely delicious! I had the one with grilled zucchini and prosciutto — so flavorful and perfectly balanced. The crust was just right, and all the ingredients tasted fresh. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back!
