" I happened upon IL Panificio while wandering downtown and couldn’t resist trying a slice. I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor, but the crust could have been a bit crisper for my taste. All in all, a solid pizza but nothing out of this world. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have heard a lot of good things about IL Panificio and finally got to try it. The crust was less than crispy, and the sauce could use a bit more seasoning. The atmosphere is nice, but the service was lackluster. Overall, I expected more given the hype. " (*Curated Review*)
