Amazingly flavorful pizza with great customer service. We went twice while I was in Colombia. The tables close to where they make the drinks are a little loud so we asked to move and they were very nice and understanding. The first time we went I had the formaggi(mozzarella, blue cheese, Gruyère, Parmesan) thin crispy crust light tangy tomato sauce with an amazing burst of salty creamy cheese and we had the capresse(mozzarella, buffalo mozzarella, tomato and pesto of the house). A lighter, softer cheesy flavor with the pesto throughout made this pizza easy to eat. Both would be good if you’re not too hungry but they’re decent sizes. The next time we went the pizzas were much meatier lol. I tasted a pizza with chicken and prunes special ordered. I didn’t think I’d like it but it was full of chicken and the prunes were slightly sweet and enhanced the flavor of the chicken. I ordered the Massima(mozzarella, toniceta ahimada, prosciutto, salami, and arugula), just fantastic flavor of meats and the fresh arugula balanced every bite with olive oil drizzle and some added pepper flakes( on my part) made this pizza perfect. I have to say my favorite was the formaggi but I’m an avid lover of cheese. I hope you get to taste this pizza at some point. It’s worth it!

We stumbled upon this place by chance and were pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent, the service was great, and the singer added a lovely touch. We’ll definitely be returning—the drinks were amazing.

A Gem! Best Italian food in La Candelaria if not all of Bogota! First of all, i want to say what a very pleasant surprise.! I didn’t imagine an extraordinary Italian restaurant in La Candelaria. We have been coming to this neighborhood for years and always look for authentic Colombian cuisine. This new restaurant for us, blew us away! The ambience was exceptional as was the food, the music, and the attention of the staff, Carlos, the owner, his sister. All who welcomed my wife and I as if we were rockstars! Let’s start with the food, i had a plate of the Ossobuco with veal that was to die for. The meat just fell of the bone and the taste was very impressive. My wife had the lasagna and she is very picky. She gave the plate a 10. She really liked the mixture of the chicken, mushrooms and the bacon with a delicious cheese incorporated in the plate. We also ordered a small pizza to see how it compared to all the reviews of people speaking very highly of the crust. It was delicious! We had the Hawaiian pizza which was with pineapples and ham…just cooked very well! We enjoyed each slice. I would like to thank Carlos for coming over and being so gracious and even giving us a short tour of the upstairs and walking us to the entrance. On the way, he introduced us to his Mom and i just had to take a picture…that touched my heart. For all who want to go to a special place for delicious Italian cuisine…please take my recommendation and go to this GEM!

My wife brought me here for my birthday and called to ask if a reservation was needed. It was not needed ad they were very happy to spell out what they'd like to do for me. They setup a happy birthday banner as well as a sign, free dessert, everything was amazing! I went here because of the reviews (as I had mentioned to my wife previously) and now I MUST how incredible the staff are here. Super attentive, happy to help with any request and their food was of course delicious. They have the whole package for, to me, a five star restaurant. Muchisimas gracias por Todo Pizza Candelaria!!!!!

This is a great La Candelaria located restaurant that specializes in Italian cuisine such as pizzas and pasta dishes. The restaurant also has a large selection of vegetarian options. I was there for lunch and ordered a vegan pizza using tofu as a substitute for cheese and also opted for the gluten free crust. The pizza was generous in portion size, reasonably priced and delicious. The service staff were friendly, professional and accommodating. In particular, the manager José David was efficient and spoke fluent English - the menu is also available in English. Being close to Halloween, the restaurant was nicely decorated with Halloween decor. The ambiance was casual and relaxed. This is a wonderful place for those that enjoy delicious Italian food served by courteous staff in a comfortable environment.
