"I posted a request for a booking on line but received no response so with a BuyClub 2for1 voucher in hand we set off to find this restaurant in Paquis. The place looked quite tired from outside as the glass in the door had a rather large hole in it (not their fault I guess as they were waiting for it to be repaired after someone trying to break in by all accounts). We could see the wood fired pizza oven glowing in the corner and the chef making some pizza. The restaurant only had 2 other people seated, not particularly unusual I guess for 7pm on a Wednesday in November. We thought OK lets give it a go and stepped inside. The waiter was polite and greeted us with a smile, seated us and provided us with 2 menus, one in English and one French, took our drinks order and left us to choose our pizza. We chose a Tunisian style pizza (something I had never heard of) and a Chicken and Pesto pizza and then sat back with our drinks in hand whilst we waited for the pizza chef to do his stuff. To be honest we both thought that it might not be very good judging the rather tired look of the place but I am pleased to report that we were pleasantly surprised. The pizza was good, not the best that we had ever tasted but very good all the same. The topping was generous, the pizza well cooked, the base not to thick or doughy, the crust not burnt to a cinder. Now for the choice of dessert. Would they offer my favourite, Tiramisu? Yes they did. Tiramisu is something that I really like but something I usually order and then afterwards think, well that was average or that was something that could have passed for a bowl of chocolate topped shaving cream. So my verdict - the Tiramisu was very good and if pushed I might say bordering on excellent! So overall a good experience. I have noted some of the negative reports and also the positive. Service was OK and friendly. The pizza was good. The surroundings were, I suppose you could say, a kind of working 'warehouse/loft style layout but some would no doubt say a bit tatty. However our overall experience was positive. I guess it also proves the saying, 'never judge a book by it's cover". Would we go back? Sure we would.Note: The restaurant seems to have a regular trade in take-away pizza - so if you fancy eating a good pizza cooked in an authentic wood fired oven in the comfort of your own home give NoPizza a call."
