Al Gambero In Varese

12/05/2025: Very good food, very good service and good price. Easy parking at night.

04/05/2025: Let's start with the one hour wait for our pizza's.... Whilst I fully understand that when a restaurant is busy, the waiting times may be longer, but a well run restaurant will inform their customers that the wait may be lengthy. Also, its quite extraordinary that takeaway orders be served before the seated guests. Secondly, the waiters and staff were dismissive and rude. When I inquired whether our pizza's had been forgotten, I was told they were actually in the oven. This was clearly a lie as we had to wait a further 25 mins. The shoulder shrugs were a clear message that they don't care. Lastly the bill seems to have been 'rounded up'. We paid €40 for two pizzas (€12 and €14 respectively) and a bottle of water and a small beer. On the plus side the atmosphere was pretty lively, and the pizza's were large and tasty. It doesn't in my mind make up for the rubbish service - hence the low rating. In an area with many, many pizzeria's I am sure that there are better options.
