“ One of the best pizzas places in Florence. You can't go wrong with any of the pizzas there. The service is fast and food is great. Already miss this place! ”
“ Awesome wood fired pizza in Oltrarno! We waited in line for about 30 minutes before being seated inside. We looked at the menu while in line and felt prepared to order right away since we were so hungry. I was so intrigued by some of the pizzas like the tuna and onion one. I went with the GustaPizza - sauce, mozzarella, arugula, tomatoes, more cheese. My boyfriend got the Calzone opened, which had sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, and salami. I had a glass of wine and we each had a sparkling water, plus an iced tea. Our total was only 39 euro. The pizzas were big and we each could only eat half. I actually loved my boyfriend's pizza even more than mine. It was fun to sit near the pizza oven and watch the workers prep and cook them so quickly. I loved this pizza! Definitely would recommend! ”
“ Omg-the Gustapizza was the best pizza ever. It was so fresh and flavorful. I loved it so much! Just prepare yourself as an American to cut up your own pizza, and maybe eat it with a fork because the napkins are not enough. It was insanely good! My boyfriend got the calabrese which was spicy! We both liked the Gustapizza more than that one. ”
“ I'm glad I was able to try Gustapizza! It was a nice treat and good experience. Around 1:30 PM, other restaurants were beginning to close, so we wandered over here. There was a line forming along the wall, but we were seated within 15-20 minutes. Between four people, we shared three pizzas and had about 7 slices leftover. They gave us a box for the leftover slices. Gustapizza €12 - This was my favorite! It had fresh arugula on top. The tomatoes were so good. I loved the tomato sauce. Porcini €13 - This was good only because of the sausage. I didn't like how mushy the mushroom was. Cotto e funghi €12 - This was the second best of the three. This also had tomato sauce. The ham and mushroom were good. The table next to us ordered the truffle pizza €15; it smelled so good. I would try that next time. Credit card/Apple Pay accepted. Pay at cashier. Bathroom is downstairs. No WiFi. Menu is in English. Cover charge €2 per person. ”
“ Ok everyone always raved about Gusta Pizza and I always dismissed it because it just sounded too good to be true. However I was completely wrong and this place is definitely worth the hype. Their pizza is so delicious. I can't even properly describe how good their tomato sauce is, you just have to try it. Small hack but if you take your pizza to go, you will probably get it faster (if there's a line to sit down). ”
“ Good pizza but it is a tourist trap Pizza was good but nothing extraordinary. The cabrese had a really good spicy salami! The pesto was really good too but it got a little heavy at the end. Because of how popular this place is, I had higher expectations. Probably wouldn't come back ”
“ My husband and I walked past the line at this place the other night and told ourselves we would check it out for lunch. We arrived close to opening time and were able to snag an indoor table. Pizzas were delish! We paired them with a bottle of sparkling wine because that is how lunch on vacation should be. We had the Margherita and the Tartufo with prosciutto. Double yum. We followed the lead of the other patrons and used a fork and knife to make our way through the pizzas. They play good music and the people working here are super friendly. ”
“ This is the best pizza I had in Italy! The line was crazy for dine in but they had a separate line for picking up. It's a small place but it was completely packed. I ordered a margarita pizza, it was ready pretty quick, within 20 mins or so and ate it on the curb next to the restaurant, which worked out well. It was fantastic and truly one of the highlights of my trip to Florence. ”
“ OMG! By far the best pizza I ate in Italy. This place was a recommendation from social media as a must try. All the great reviews were correct! Upon arrival, the line was long and around the corner. I was thinking, this is crazy, but soon realize that there was a separate line for ToGO orders. We were able to order the pizza with the exact toppings and receive it in less than 30 minutes. It may have been longer, but the aroma of pizza was wonderful and everyone in line seemed to be in good spirits waiting to be seated, served, or pick up order. We even met a guy that stated he orders almost overnight from this location. Not only was the pizza really tasty, but the price was also beyond reasonable with large portions. We were there a few months ago and now writing this review is making me want to go back to Florence specifically for this pizza. If ever in the area, please try!!! ----Oh I forget to mention that the pizza is cooked right in front of you if you decided to dine in. What an experience. ”
