Gault&Millau's review 2026

Popular with locals and travelers alike, Pizzeria Etna has long ceased to be just a title for good pizza. It's a relaxed culinary stop where the classic pizzeria soul meets thoughtful plates. The centerpiece, however, belongs to the varied, richly coated pizzas prepared from carefully raised dough. Among the seasonal ones, the pizza with boletus and dry salami stands out, on which the earthy forest flavors are intertwined with the fullness of stracchino cheese and the juiciness of mozzarella. Each ingredient comes to the fore, and the whole works balanced, aromatic and extremely inviting. Attention is drawn to the homemade chicken liver pate, tender and creamy, refined with orange jam and roasted almonds, which add a pleasant crunchiness, and parsley oil freshness and herbal notes. Chickpea hummus impresses with its rich, smooth texture, topped with truffle and black salt. Among the bolder plates, potato tacos stuffed with juicy shredded pork stand out, vasabi adds spiciness to them, and fermented red onions provide freshness. The carbonara pasta is prepared in a classic way, the silky sauce clings nicely to the homemade, handmade bigols, with crispy pancetta and added pecorine.
