Love it! Personal size pizza. Superb dough with a wood fire oven that gives you some char on the pizza! Kids love it too.

The beef brisket empanadas as hot out of the oven. The dough is pizza dough so it’s like mini calzone. The pepperoni pizza was chewy, great, and just what I ordered with a double dose of pepperoni and cheese. Could have had more pepperoni but I love em. Staff are friendly. Food was ready in ten minutes. Located down in Ballston Quarter, the sound acoustics are awful so it’s really noisy. But the empanadas at 3 for 5 bucks or 6 for 10 are meaty. No other filler. They come with a pineapple zesty dip. Very nice.

I loved their white pizza.

So happy this place came in! Cheese pizza is superb especially if you like doughy pizza. It's a personal pan size so a bit small especially because it's so delicious. Will be a regular customer!

I was milling around the Ballston food court and the pizza smelled so good I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! I ordered the Bentley which has tomato sauce, provolone and mozzarella blend, cured chorizo, soppressata, Peruvian sweet peppers, spicy honey. The sweet and savory combination is unbeatable. I want a whole jar of those Peruvian peppers! The pizza also came out quickly and service was fast. I'll definitely be going back again.

The pizza was pretty good! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The size is a good size for a personal pizza. The taste was yummy but nothing exceptional. The dough was a little too doughy for my liking; could have used a tad bit more time in the oven. I got a Pretty in Pepperoni and added mushrooms. Next time I will try their specialty creations!

I had a taste for pizza and wanted to taste something different than what I typically try. The Green Monster was a nice alternative and I wouldn't mind eating it again. It was not a long wait. My food didn't seem to stay hot for long. I may suggest planning ahead as vendor prices range from $-$$. We opted to share it in our group along with other food from other vendors. The pizza ranged from medium in size and if I ate it alone, I would have leftovers. The Quarter Market was a fun setting with multiple seating options indoors and outdoors.Kid-friendliness: I saw many families with young kids enjoying this space.Parking: We parked at a parking garage across the street. The walk was not far, in my opinion.

Genuinely good. The dairy free cheese mixes with the sauce and olive oil on the Margheroni to turn into liquid gold, which is perfectly complicated with delicious pepperoni and fresh basil. I come to Arlington specifically for this pizza.
Not great. Dough is dry, sauce is bland, toppings are barely there. One of our pizzas (basic margherita), the basil leaves were just tossed to one side of the pizza. Not even in the cheese, just an ornamental addition to one side. Guy at the counter told several of us he would call our names when ready. Never did, got up there and made a comment and his response was, they're all there, you have to come grab them. Not the directions we were given! Skip this place in Quarters.

Turu's is conveniently located smack dab in the center of the Ballston Quarter food court space. I got the Margheroni pizza (margherita pizza with pepperoni) and it far surpassed my expectations. They offer quick, individual-sized pizzas that are ready in five minutes. I expected a decent, quick bite, but I was surprised that their pizza is actually among the best in the area. I suspect that if I put it in a side by side taste test with Pupatella or Lupo Marino, those might win, but their pizza game is in that league rather than the typical quick serve league. They have bottle sodas sweetened with sugar cane.The service was very polite, and when they said the pizza would take five minutes, they were right. Five, not six. I also noticed that they kindly stayed a few minutes late when a little girl ran up a few minutes after closing really wanting pizza to make it for her. Solid team!It's hard to imagine how they could have been better!

Located in the food court in Ballston...i feel like I shouldn't call it a food court, Its more upscale than that. Multiple restaurant space? Elevated food area? Whatever. Anyway, located where there's a bunch of other food options, I picked this place because they said it would take 5 mins for a pizza. I got the Pretty in Pepperoni and a san pellegrino. It didn't take 5 mins, it was more like 8, but still, pretty fast to get a pizza. Pizza was good, there was a decent amount of pepperoni to go around (lets say 3-4 per slice), lil bit of grease and decent amount of cheese. Cant go wrong with that.

Pizza is solid, so I keep coming back. The high school kids behind counter are frequently annoying and rude, however.They also just randomly close sometimes… and it’s painfully apparent it’s just because the kids don’t feel like working.
