“ Good place, we arrived very close to closing time for lunch but they still agreed to take us in. Proper diavola pizza with nduja and some rather unique ones on the menu. The views are nice aswell, with a large outdoor terrace. Recommended. ”
“ It is by pure chance that we ended up at Pomo d’Oro while visiting the lovely old town of Colle di Val d’Elsa. I had previously located a pizza restaurant via a review and had saved the name. When we got there, the place, which was next to Pomo d’Oro, had no pizza on the menu! Turns out the photo in the review was taken at Pomo d’Oro. And it wasn’t a regret to have entered there as we were looking for pizza anyway. And what a pizza! Just delicious! High quality ingredients. Good portions, good service with English speaking staff, which wasn’t always the case in restaurants. I’d visit again if I found myself in the region once more. ”
“ A pretty restaurant in the quiet medieval city of Colle di Val d’Elsa. It’s was past lunch time when we stepped in for a pizza. Oh my, the pizza dough is really good! Better than what we had tasted from top restaurants. It’s crisp on the base but so soft and fresh when bite into it. All the personnel are so friendly and attentive. Overall, a delightful experience to dine here. ”
“ Ok... If you order a pizza with anchovies you expect more than 4 small once (see picture - and if you can't find them, then that is my point). It should be at least 12. ”
“ Great spot with an astonishing view from the patio. The food was delicious and lived up to the name – gourmet. They were out of greens, and the waitress couldn’t suggest alternatives to the salads, but ChatGPT came to the rescue. We also ended up ordering too much, as we were misinformed about the portion sizes. ”
