"We ordered one pizza (12 squares) for 3 ppl. Half with eggplant Parm and half pepperoni. Would have been nice to add a mixed salad if they had it on the menu. Amazing how good pizza is when it's made with quality ingredients like this. We will go back to this place."

"Great Roman-style/flatbread pizza, plenty of classic and modern takes on the genre. Easily taken to the taproom next door, though Il Ferramenta now has beer on tap."

"We were pleasantly surprised by our visit to this pizza restaurant during the Mahone Bay Pumpkin Festival. The quality of the pizza was outstanding, with a great variety to choose from – and the creamy, hot-style dip we tried was unbelievably delicious. The staff were kind and welcoming, service was fast, and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Honestly, the only thing we regret is that this restaurant isn’t closer to Halifax, because we would definitely visit often. Fantastic restaurant – highly recommended for anyone who loves great pizza and friendly service!"

"We are locals and enjoy going here regularly, because you really haven't had pizza until you've had this pizza. The crust is out-of-this-world awesome and the toppings are unique and divine. Blue cheese, goat cheese, fig, prosciutto...If you love quality and adventurous pizza, you will love this place. They do also have more "standard" offerings for the Pepperoni and Meat Lovers crowd. Everything is Italian, right down to the beverage offerings. Unfortunately, they are situated in a small town with very little population base and three pizza places, so, they do have pretty short hours. Hopefully, one day, Chester will grow and have more going on to further support great small businesses like this."
