Michelangelo

The popular Neapolitan pizzas with fresh Fior Di Latte and San Marzano tomato sauce are baked at 850 degrees Fahrenheit. What distinguishes pizza from Napoli is that it does not contain any oil, but is baked with fine-grained wheat flour and plenty of water. When filled the pizzas are swiftly placed in the hot oven and baked for one and a half minutes. The result is a perfectly thin and crispy pizza base with topping ingredients that retain their flavors. It also means that it rarely takes more than three minutes from ordering until a fresh pizza is placed on the table.

For those wanting to explore other parts of the Italian cuisine, there are plenty of meat and fish dishes and of course pasta. The big favorite is “Fettuccine Piemontese Al Tartufo” – truffle pasta with finely chopped fillet of veal. The solid wine list is filled with handpicked Italian wines that match the food perfectly. For those not yet satisfied there is a small but scrumptious range of dolce, sweet desserts, perfect for enjoying with an espresso and perhaps a small grappa…

That people come to Michelangelo to eat is obvious; they come back thanks to the well-prepared food and the excellent service. All guests are welcomed the Italian way, with chitchatting and joking in a tongue-in-cheek style. The service really stands out, it is both authentic and professional, and occasionally the maître d bursts out singing in Italian.

Michelangelo gathers both locals and tourists, old and young, families with children, and couples on dates. During the summer evenings, the premises fill quickly with people wanting to try the Neapolitan pizzas in the picturesque 16th-century environment. Both inside and outside this place is bustling with good vibes, with the cozy Old Town alleys right outside the door.

Should you be interested in a private party or event the restaurant’s cellar vaults with room for 80 persons can be reserved. Here you will have access to your own music system, bar, and the choice of an Italian buffet or a three-course menu with starter, main course, and dessert. And if you’d rather enjoy your risotto and tiramisu at home on the sofa, you can easily order takeaway.
