Great service and quality, prices are very reasonable. Very convenient stop for a good dinner if you are driving through France, you get a restaurant gourmet experience instead of quick stops with fast food for the same price and practically no detour.

Nous sommes venus en décembre en Amoureux c'était parfait ! J'ai aujourd'hui emmené 2 de mes enfants ils ont adoré. L'ambiance est vraiment agréable, un petit fond de musique juste ce qu'il faut. Le spritz limoncello mon préféré ! Les pizzas sont très bonnes, je n'ai plus de place pour le dessert ce qui est rare. Les serveurs ont été agréables avec mon fils de 4 ans ( Mahé) . La femme qui encaisse est très agréable également, et point d'honneur à demander au parents si elle peut proposer un bonbon à l'enfant N'hésitez pas , le service est fluide , peu d'attente les 2 fois où nous y sommes allés et c'était 2 samedis soir.

Nous sommes allées manger un soir avec une ancienne amie et nous n’arrivions pas à nous décider sur le choix de la pizza. Le personnel nous a alors proposé de faire une pizza moitié/moitié avec deux recettes différentes, ce que nous avons beaucoup apprécié. Les pizzas étaient goûteuses, les prix sont corrects et dans la moyenne. Le personnel est serviable et le service rapide. En bref : simple et efficace. Je recommande.
