Reviews
Considering that I lived in New York and visited Italy several times, I’m a pretty good judge of pizza. And this place pretty much nails it. Counter service is slow, as they seem to be more interested in goofing off than handling customers when they’re ready to order. My wife was about 30 seconds away from walking out. But I get it – I was 13 once too. Once you get past the ordering snafu the food comes out pretty quick and usually with a smile.
And honestly this is some of the best pizza I’ve had since I’ve been here in the deep south. Their pepperoni is on point! Love that they have a fixing station with extra sauce if you want it along with pepper, oregano, salt and pepper. There’s even a hot oil option which I’ve never seen before that is very cool. And you never have to ask for a to-go box (trust me, with pizza this good you definitely want to take it with you) because they’re in the front and back of the restaurant on a do it yourself basis.
Now let’s talk about the atmosphere. It’s kinda like you’re sitting in some garage with a bunch of picnic tables. I mean, it’s clean and all, but dang. For a place with pizza this good I thought that was quite a disappointment. They’ve got Ferrari race nonsense hung all over the place and even a few Vespas in the front of the store, which I’m sure was quite an investment, but they couldn’t be bothered to set up booths or something that would make it feel a little more like a restaurant.
So I guess it’s time for a staff meeting, boys. Let’s tighten up that service, and maybe add a few walls, some sheet rock, and some hanging light fixtures for that true Italian feel. Real Italians don’t eat in garages.
But they changed the Gelato size to two sizes, the new gal had a hard time scooping so she didn’t give a decent portion. 🙁
The vibe inside is cozy and relaxed, and you can tell they care about what they’re putting on the plate. It’s the kind of place where one pizza turns into “let’s order another one just to try it.”
If you’re anywhere near, go. If you’re not, it’s worth the drive.
Food came out fast and was really good. Crust was slightly charred which gave it a great flavor. I went for a the meat busters and my son got the Margherita. If you prefer more sauce on your pie they have a station with extra sauce and spices you can add.
The seating is basic, wooden tables and benches with plenty of space. We were only in town for a baseball tournament, and glad we stopped in. I highly recommend!
They do not disappoint. I went for a birthday lunch and it was fantastic. Save room for gelato, cannoli, and of course cake. I would highly recommend and plan to return even for take out.
We’re definitely planning to bring the whole family back to enjoy another authentic Italian pizza. It was a nice little find!
We’ve been patrons of Capella since they opened in Trussville but now we moved closer to 280 so we glad Mehmet remembers us today. Mehmet and his brother are genuinely warm people. Ciao! ❤️
P.S.
Don’t forget to try their Gelato and Canolli!
