Our focus is on fresh seasonal and sustainable produce combined with key ingredients specifically imported from Italy to create an authentic Neapolitan pizza for our customers. Our ingredients are meticulously hand picked to ensure the best taste possible. So come in, enjoy our wood-fired pizza, homemade pastas, vegan alternatives, locally sourced wines and best quality beer. We would be humbled to see you come as a guest and leave as a friend.We use our own sourdough starter for our pizza process which ferments for a minimum of 48 hrs – the result is a base with a great flavour, sourdough taste and a texture that is light but with a bit of chew. All our pizzas are hand stretched, traditionally topped, and woodfired – Napoli style. We use extra virgin olive oil and organic sea salt flakes on all our dishes. All our pizzas are 12 inches in diameter.

Dishes were great and reminded us of our long-ago trip to Bali. Very flavorful and not overly spicy (although the homemade sambal will jazz up any dish if you wish) Twice cooked ribs, aged duck and Balinese pork skewers were all standouts. Service was prompt and helpful. Prices were very reasonable. Great experience overall!
