One of the best places in Chennai for authentic wood fired Neapolitan pizza. They have a cozy, trendy vibe that works perfectly for a casual meal with friends or family, especially if you love good sourdough crusts. Tried the Very Peri Boy pizza, which was fiery and flavorful with peri peri chicken and mushrooms, nicely balanced by generous cheese. The Atta Boy pizza paired tangy buffalo chicken with a beautifully baked golden crust for a punchy bite, while the Bad Boy pizza with smoky chipotle chicken and crunchy paprika was super tasty. For sides, Tried the cheesy garlic bread and Fat Boy’s fried chicken which were absolutely worth it. Service was quick and the staff were polite and attentive. The open kitchen adds to the overall experience. While the prices are on the higher side, the food quality clearly justifies it. Overall, a must visit spot in Alwarpet if you’re serious about good pizza.
This was my second visit and it's one of the few places where you can truly enjoy good sourdough pizzas. The pizza was really good.. The only downside was that the AC wasn't working and the music was quite loud., lowering the volume would make the experience even better.
Very quaint and small place for some yummy pizza 🍕. It is in the quiet lane of alwarpet and a great place to have freshly made pizza with kids and family it’s not like a QSR places . It’s lazy and laid back with good menu for veg and non veg . The Dough was very soft and yummy cheese . The desserts were delicious too .
