It's a small place. We found it on google maps. Kamal the owner doesn't speak English, but he was kind and willing to understand. The pizzas are delicious! The rizzoto with salmon was delicious too. We took 4 pizzas on take-away (ok our kids loved them!)

These Algerians really know how to make pizza! The flavors were spot on and every bite was delicious. I ’m just passing through, so I won’t be back, but if you’re in the area it’s definitely worth trying.

I love arancini since I discovered them during my holiday in Sicily! I have been looking for the real ones in other countries ever since. They were the perfect size and perfect taste. Not to greasy and the correct structure. great service! We were early in the morning to get arancini and only want those with nothing else. The owner was friendly despite our low value order. We could even eat them inside the restaurant. Very fancy pizza oven with beautiful wood for baking. Normally I don’t eat pizza / pasta due to the amount of carbs but at this location I would try all. affordable! €11,- for 3 perfect Aranchini!! Thank you Mr. Owner for being so nice!!

Excellent wood-fired pizza, made with skill and attention. Great service from nice people. Good vibe, and the big disco-ball-like oven is pretty impressive. Good price for quality pizza. Only three tables so get in early for lunch. Takeaway also possible. They have this sandwich made with wood-fired pizza crust-style bread, baked to order. It looked amazing, will try it next time. Thank you for today, you really saved us! And our daughter did finish most of the pizza at home (not the crusts, they went to papa as usual).

For me it’s the Lasagna- the best in Paris I’ve had so far. My husband and I are regulars here.
