"We had a great experience at E Prie de Mä! ⭐ At first, we thought the restaurant was full, but then we noticed one free table and decided to stay — and we’re so glad we did. Later, we realized the place is actually much bigger than it looks from the outside, with two or maybe even more floors . The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming from the very beginning . They even helped us with a couple of things that had nothing to do with the restaurant itself — truly going above and beyond . The food was excellent ! We had pizza, and it was delicious — not too oily or heavy, just really well made. Great taste, nice presentation, and good beer too! Coming from Switzerland, we found the prices very reasonable — much lower than what we’re used to . All in all, we were very happy and satisfied . If we have the chance, we’ll definitely stop by again before we leave Italy . Highly recommended — five stars from us! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"We really enjoyed there! In summer I had some guests from Germany and we had a gathering there. The pizza was so good that they have decided to go there again the day after! Staff were also so nice and friendly, even brought us a small cake since it was my friend's birthday"

"First meal in Italy and we went to E Prie de Mä due to its convenience to our hotel and options available on the menu. The staff were great and spoke English. The menu had both Italian and English versions which made ordering simple. Prices were reasonable but do keep in mind there is a 2€ service fee per person (which is reasonable). I ordered the Trofie al pesto and my girlfriend ordered the beef steak and french fries. Both were good and we enjoyed our meal. The bread basket was a bit stale, however, that's the only criticism I have for this place. Overall, great experience and would recommend."

"The food is amazing, the service is better and the prices are very good! I had pasta carbonara which was very good and a Diavola pizza which was good but a little too spicy for me. My friend had an octopus and potatoes and said it was very delicious and enough for one person."
