Great pizza, very friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. Perfect place to grab a beer after a long workday - or a full night out!

A fantastic hidden spot — so hidden it’s almost hard to find unless you know it’s there. Very cosy atmosphere, with delicious food and good drinks. The only downside was service: we sat outside for about 10 minutes while the waitress passed by without noticing us, so we figured out we had to order inside.

This place has a great ambiance and absolutely delicious pizzas made by chef Beril We ordered all different pizzas on the menu and tried them all: Margherita, Quattro Formaggio, Diavola, Parma. My favourite was definitely the Quattro Formaggio. The wine selection was also impressive and really enjoyed the Rioja on the glass. The marinated olives were also very tasty. I enjoyed a glass of Hugo Spritz too (because why not), which went spectacular with a summer evening in Oslo!

Laid back place in central Oslo. Nice place to grab a drink in noisy neighborhood.
