Authentic Italian Pizzas with Stunning Views

Nestled in a picturesque corner overlooking the Commons, Pizza Da Valter embodies the spirit of rustic Italian dining without pretense, offering authenticity with every bite—if only patience is a virtue you possess. The moment you cross the threshold, you're enveloped in an aromatic embrace of bubbling mozzarella and toasted sourdough emanating from its magnificent wood-fired oven. Valter himself, the wizard behind this pie utopia, often graces his guests with charming banter, turning what could seem a quaint trattoria into a lively community gathering spot. There’s a beguiling cacophony as families chatter eagerly while the staff, almost exclusively comprised of fellow Italians, flit charmingly between tables echoing warmth that's unlikely rehearsed but earnest.

However, for all its culinary wizardry where pizzas are not just good but transcendent, time here adopts a Mediterranean pace—a mellow amble rather than a brisk London stride. Many fine wines accompany your meal, but would possibly see more favor were the wait less arduous; take it in stride with freshly chopped garlic swimming in olive oil, leaving its piquant trace on both palate and memory. Despite these lags between courses, there is charm therein, nestled among sun-soaked outdoor seating offering a splendid gaze upon the Commons, perfect for a languid afternoon escape—dogs welcomed enthusiastically. A tempting narrative in stone and yeast awaits where simplicity concocts something sacred, leaving some faults suspended within a wider idea of allure become both crafted and communal. — Clarissa Cuisinier
