Latin Pizza - Bucharest

I asked for their vegan options and one of the workers told me the only option was potato pizza, come to find out later after I had already gotten to the hotel that it had mozzarella in it. Either the staff is inadequate or is willing to lie for a sale, either way it is unacceptable!

Maybe my experience was just a fluke, I hope so! When I went, I don’t think there were any vegan options. They only had one type of pizza without cheese, and it had pesto on it, so I don’t think it was vegan. And staff were too brisk and dismissive to try to ask. I was pretty surprised. I’ve known Roman style pizza places to have at least a few naturally/accidentally vegan options, but I guess I hadn’t really been to Roman style pizza places outside of Rome before.

This place is on the main road just at the edge of the old town area, so is easy to get to and open late. The pizza is sold by weight, so when ordering they ask you what portion you would like of whatever is there. Unfortunately, this is where you might decide to turn around and leave, since they seem to use the same utensils (a heavy scissors) for cutting the veg and non-veg pizzas. This is hardly an uncommon situation in most pizza places, but when they write that they have vegan/veg. food on the door and actually go to the effort of giving you the options, it's exasperating that they then screw it up like this. If you're getting take away, they'll cut it into smaller pieces to fit in the take-away box, so better to tell the server guy to just not cut it. I know the staff are probably on low wages and not paid enough to care, but I would be more than incentivised to give some extra money if they made a point of showing that they weren't using the meaty utensils when cutting the veg. pizzas. Having said all that, the pizza is good, definitely above average, and the options are quite interesting which makes it all the more frustrating.

Roma style take away pizza. Very nice thin and crispy. Take it from an Italianpizza sold by weight.

There are 3 vegan pizzas: spicy, potatoes and mushroom. All of them are amazing! Simply GO!
