"⭐⭐⭐⭐ O sabor é muito bom. A esfiha de calabresa estava gostosa, mas poderia vir com a carne mais bem triturada. A de 4 queijos estava ótima. Um ponto de melhoria seria a embalagem, que não veio lacrada. O preço é um pouco acima das esfihas comuns, porém o tamanho é maior e condiz com o valor."

"As esfihas são grandes, bem recheadas e muito saborosas! Ótima opção para uma refeição rápida e gostosa. Recomendo fazer os pedidos pelo aplicativo Anota Aí — além de mais prático, costuma ser mais barato do que pelo iFood. O único ponto negativo é o cheiro de cigarro na entrada do local, vindo dos motoboys que ficam em frente. Seria interessante repensar esse espaço para tornar a experiência no local ainda melhor."

"Da vezes que fiz pedido na pizzaria Rafael, sempre fui muito bem atendido, a pizza chegou certinho e entregou rápido. Quando pedi a esfilha doce ,ao meu pedido dei a sugestão para vir na caixinha por que a outra embalagem grudou o recheio, aceitaram a sugestão e veio na caixinha separada.yem um ótimo atendimento, até o momento só elogios."

"Bom atendimento, apesar da demora para retirada do pedido, devido a problemas nos computadores, após aguardar um bom tempo a atendente resolveu tirar o pedido manualmente (manuscrito), o tempo de espera após a realização do pedido foi razoável. O produto escolhido foi um BEIRUTE DE CALABRESA, que por sinal estava muito bom, bem recheado, calabresa bem tostada, tudo muito bom, nada a reclamar. A apresentação estava muito boa a embalagem, os acompanhamentos (catchup mostarda e maionese), vieram acondicionados num embalagem lacrada, (muito higiênico), o refrigerante solicitado de 600ml, veio acompanhado de um brinde ( refrigerante de 200ml). Tudo aprovado super recomendo.... Já conheço o local a alguns anos, nunca tive problemas!!!!"
