My husband and I had dinner here last night. We started with the meatballs which were great. Perfect serving size and served in a bright and delicious tomato sauce. We ordered the Supreme and Diavola pizzas. Initially our pizzas were not quite to our liking, but the owner was receptive to our feedback and remade both pizzas for us. The second batch were awesome. We really enjoyed our meal but the stars of the evening were the Ancora team. The service was above and beyond and we'll definitely be back.
This was literally the best traditional Italian-style pizza that I have eaten so far in New Orleans!!
Hence, the place is cozy and the staff is super nice and welcoming. I will definitely come back soon!
The food is quite tasty, but don't expect it to be loaded with cheap toppings. You're here for the quality. Wait staff is polite, but hit or miss in terms of rapport. Was disappointed with the size of the $12 market salad (photo). The caramel ice cream was outstanding. They don't advertise the pots of espresso that they will make for you but it's wonderfully chocolaty!
I read other reviews stating that their crust was the closest to Naples, and they were not exaggerating. It's the best crust and sauce I've had in the US. If you visit New Orleans and love pizza napolitana, this is a must try restaurant. You'll want to eat this pizza every time you visit. I will miss it so much. We had the the children's cheese, margherita, and diavola. Our favorite was the margherita pizza. I could eat this pizza every day.
Staff has "flavor"
Pizza is perfect in the Neapolitan way, right down to the gluten content and tomato sauce acidity
In my opinion best negroni in town
Our shared pizza was scrumptious. The crust had a good bread flavor instead of tasting like cardboard, though there were a few burnt places from the wood fire oven.
I chose an albariño from the wine list, which was a great choice.
Service was quite good and the staff were friendly. I thought the cost with alcohol was fair for the quality. There is a bar, but the restaurant is family friendly. Parking is free on the street.
Great place for Italian cocktails and pizza. The pizza is cooked in a hot wood fire oven and is ready in minutes. Must get the gnocchi and crab meat appetizer! Save the sauce to dip the pizza crust! Going back soon to try their authentic meatballs.
Buyer beware: There is a 20% surcharge on takeout. Some kind of legacy fee they haven’t done away with from the Covid days. Pizzas were tasty but I had to search for the toppings
Pizza was fantastic! Try adding shaved garlic if you are a garlic lover. Ice cream was good too!
One table in our area was extremely loud and obnoxious. We could hardly hear ourselves talk. They were so loud a mother with a baby had to leave the room. Aside from that, the food and service have always been the best ever.
