Trusted reviews
- Patricia Wells (2011) “I vote Al Taglio’s pizzas as some of the best in Paris. On a recent weekday we found mouth-watering Margherita; mozzarella and Parma ham; a version topped with truffle cream and thin discs of potato… The crust is thick and airy, the kind of chewy, long-rise dough my Italian mother used to make, and all ingredients are fresh.”
- Gilles Pudlowski (2010) “La pâte d’apparence épaisse se révèle fine et croquante: la belle surprise du lieu! La garniture, elle, est plus inégale: tomate, poivrons piquants, fromage fumé ou nom, pomme de terre (pas assez cuite, donc peu digeste) et crème de truffe (pas très parfumée): c’est sympa, roboratif, généreux, plus sympathique, que savoureux…”
- David Lebovitz (2010) “There are some really great pizza places now across Paris serving the real-deal, including Al Taglio…”
- Barbra Austin (2010) “Roman style pizza, sold by the weight…wonderfully crisp on the bottom…it holds up to the generous toppings..”
- Le Figaro (2009) “On aime beaucoup le concept futé de cette pizzeria pas comme les autres…”

Fabulous crust! I love the minimalist decor on the rue Saintonge. Go any time for an excellent pizza and when it comes to pizza, I am very difficult to please.
