This old-favourite Italian
uses traditional wood ovens
to prepare some of the city’s
finest pizzas, which range
from VND80,000 to build-
your-own-skies-the-limit.
Set inside a large, thoughtful
space seasoned chefs also
make fresh pastas, soups
and cheeses — the latter of-
ten bought by other restau-
rants. Monthly opera nights
make it well worth a visit, as
does the large wine list and
choice of desserts.
