It took half an hour to get our food and it was cold when we got it, we believe they just forgot our table. We ordered a soup and Italian meatballs, the food was not that tasty and it was more entree size - we left the place hungry. I would not recommend this place and we are definitely not... More

Like everybody in Oslo, I've been there, I've waited 20 minutes at the entrance, and I've been pleased by the quality of the bread, thin, crispy and with a nice elasticity. Now, we were four persons, two ordered a parma, the other ones an inferno and a parmigiana. Clearly, there were two winners: the parma was generously topped, while the... More

Real affordable italian pizza and atmosphere, and always very busy - so book ahead. Works both for dinner with friends as well as a romantic evening for two. :)

The pizza here is second to none in Oslo, when combined with a nice venue and vibe it is a receipt for success. Always busy so booking in advance is advised.

The pizza is sooo good, even the Italian diplomats in town bring their connections here. The pizza is "au feu bois" and only takes about a minute in the oven. Relatively cheap, this is Norway, remember. So the wages are high. Even for unskilled people. And even though the pizza is fabulous, you might find that some of the staff... More

Pizza is super (!), though very expensive. It is hard to find same quality even in Italy. Gut gemacht!

Best pizza in town, I don't think so - the pizza was ok, but not brilliant. Althought the pizzas were quick to arrive, you would never have thought they were just out of a piping hot oven. The crust was nice, but the bottom could have been crisper, and the middle was soggy.

I'm a celiaic, and most gluten free pizza bases are thick and tasteless. The gluten free pizza on Villa Paradiso, however, are a whole different matter. They are thin and crispy - definately the best gluten free pizzas I've tasted.
