im actually looking forward to going and eating at pizza rustica just cause one of my dads friends who is italian actually tried almost every pizza in kuwait and decided pizza rustica is the best yet. so i think ill follow an italian’s points of view as he did live in italy and he knows wut a pizza should taste like =)

ok had lunch there today and i have to say that the pizza is quite good but far from the best. the menu is limited, though, since it is mainly a pizzeria and not much else. also restaurants in kuwait are becoming just way to expensive. we’re going to be ahead of hong kong in no time!

yes yes yes! i agree that the alforno at marriott courtyard (open for many years so has first dibs to the name) has the best caprese pizza and possibly the best pizza overall in kuwait. la piazza has declined in quality but still good (try margherita with onions). thanks for the heads up guys. i’ve decided not to go to rustica with its scam name and bad service. shame on them.

The cheese is so rubbery I could have patched my flat tires. I suppose Alshaya thinks Kuwaitis are so dumb they will eat anything, rubber included. Have they ever heard of Fiore Di Latte Mozzarella ? How about San Marzano tomatoes ? Or even high gluten flour? A proper wood burning (not combo) ovens ? Whoever think’s its the same as Harrod’s either has alzheimers or busted taste buds.

I agree that Alforno’s pizza is MUCH better!
I am a great fan of Alforno. Their service and food is really good.
Their pizza is THE best Italian pizza in Kuwait… and I enjoy the rest of their dishes as well.

I agree with u, the pizza is not that much!!! the cheese is not fresh at all and the pizza is so oily and heavy! like ur eating a whole pizza in one slice !but the salads seems better

Maybe it’s not a GREAT pizza, but a fairly descent one. But surly much better than the junk pizza they serve at Pizza Express or Al Forno.

Al Forno started with a good pizza but the quality seems to go down with time.

Can any one name THE BEST pizza in Q8?

hmmm no mark i have to disagree with u here…

pizza at lenotre? i hail it as worst pizza in q8 …not so good
il forno is almost bad as well..

i agree their pizza is not the best pizza in Q8… but at least it registers as a pizza

if i would eat pizza here, i would go to three places only

Nino (funghi pizza)… though its more like a sandwich than a pizza
Pizza express
or
Nolita pizza for joey on friends moments

Pollo Porcinni @ Pizza Express is undoubtedly the best pizza in Kuwait.
