I wanted to like this place better. The pizza itself - the Margherita was good - but the service! They clearly forgot about us, serving at least two other tables that were seated after us.

Turns out, they did it to another table and when that gentlemen asked to see the manager outside, he was told it was only 30 minutes wait. Dude, we have watches, too. If you make a mistake, own it.

Lampo continues to knock it out of the park with bold flavors and perfectly balanced dishes that make you rethink what casual Italian should taste like.

The menu has wonderful descriptions of the food, but when served the reality is rather disappointing. Crust is an oily soggy mess with a bland sauce, the cheese is in semi melted blobs, outer crust edge is good. The sandwich ordered was supremely disappointing! Basically cold meat and a cold slice of cheese on a piece of flat bread, a let down after reading the high-falutin menu description.
