Zio Pepe In Arezzo

30/01/2026: We booked a table for two via Google Maps, but upon arrival, we were told it wasn't listed in their reservations. They apparently added this service without even knowing how to manage it, since the app showed many free time slots, while in reality the restaurant was always full. After a 15-minute wait, they still found us a table, and we managed to eat a good pizza (with caramelized onions, probably from the supermarket). The atmosphere is pleasant but noisy, especially since they often host birthday parties and other events in the gazebo.

27/01/2026: We had a dinner with friends; there were seven of us. We ordered six pizzas and one person a roast chicken. While waiting for our dishes, we asked for fries to be brought first, partly to give the chicken a chance to cook, thus facilitating the kitchen and ensuring all the dishes arrive at the same time. However, they created a bit of a mix-up; the pizzas arrived fairly quickly, but without the fries first, nor the chicken (which was a mistake, but was accepted anyway). We pointed out and reminded them about the fries, and they called the kitchen, but they promptly made them, delivering them while we were still eating our pizzas, while the person who ordered chicken was still without anything. After finishing the pizzas and fries, we decided to order a mixed fried pizza; both because the pizzas are very thin and one might be too small, and to keep the person who ordered chicken company. When the chicken arrived, the fried pizza arrived when I was practically finished eating it, thus creating a constant "someone eats, someone waits." The place and the service are certainly simple, unpretentious, yet friendly and helpful. The pizzas are good, though the dough is a bit bland (perhaps using a less refined flour would add a bit of flavor). They're classic Tuscan in style, very thin and crispy; for this reason, a single pizza might seem a bit small for those with a good appetite. The grilled chicken was very good, tender, well-cooked, and a generous portion. The fries were also well-cooked, and the fried fish was good. Seeing the neighboring tables, we were tempted by the first courses, which looked very well-seasoned and, above all, quite generous. The prices are average and even lower than many other places. I'll definitely be back; in the end, we had a great time.
