A 15 minutes walk from San Pietro, with pizzas that’ll keep you coming for more. I love Pizza in Rome.

Apart from the title being my own personal, honest, declaration (I do LOVE pizza), it’s actually the name of a Pizzeria in Rome. I love Pizza is a 10-15 minutes walk from St Peter’s Basilica, and bustles daily with not only tourists but also locals.

It’s located exactly at Via Leone IV, 91, with “I LOVE PIZZA” written right above the entrance.

The interior is not very spacious, so if you’re a party of more than 2 people, take-away is truly the better option. At noon, tables are fully occupied with people coming in for lunch, and you can hear english to chinese to german to italian spoken in this Pizzeria.

The way you order is pretty simple. When you’re interested in only having quick bites of Pizza, you can simply point to one of the pizzas in display, and tell them how much you would like. They will then heat it up for you. I usually ask for 2 pieces each from 2 types of pizzas when I’m feeling like having a snack to bring along my walk exploring the eternal city.

When you order this way, they’re going to calculate the price by the weight of your pizza. The awesome thing is that you could have varieties of pizzas in one sitting instead of finishing only one type of it.  Another great thing from this place is that you’re probably spend only 4 Euros for quick bites and maybe 8 Euros for a regular lunch.

In the evening, or during dinner hours, this place is actually not so crowded and when you want to, you could dine inside. There aren’t a lot of people for dinner since most of them (including me) opted to have the pizzas as take-away and enjoy it at home.

I mean– good pizza in front of your favourite netflix series, who wouldn’t like that?

I love Pizza also give you the option to order a round pan of pizza, which they’ll bake on the spot for you. For this, it might be a good idea to order first by phone, so you can skip the waiting time! A pan of pizza cost around 7-9 Euros, and is worth every single penny.

The pizzas are actually quite thin, which is what I love. I have never been able to fully enjoy thick pizza, and I love Pizza is just the place for me. They’re also generous with their toppings and the cheese. Especially the cheese. These pizzas are not for the weak hearted!

Anyway, the next time you go and visit San Pietro, don’t skip this place! If you went to Rome and don’t eat Pizza, did you really go to Rome? I declare: nope!

A little confession: in my 7 days stay, I ate their pizzas exactly 4 times. I just keep coming back to get more Pizzas!
