Absolutely refreshing. We loved the combination of olives, feta cheese, cucumber and avocado slices, and the lemon herb vinaigrette dressing. The crust was thin and crispy, and the taste wasn't overpowering.

With an olive oil base, this is as healthy as a pizza can get. Another with generous toppings - eggplant, zucchini, sundried tomatoes, parmesan and mozzarella cheese, cilantro and basil. Slightly thicker crust than the others, but it was baked to a perfect golden brown. Not too cheesy either.

Strictly for tomato lovers. The strong tomato taste overpowered everything else, including the eggplant and bell peppers. The crust was rather thick and somewhat dry.

We liked the thin crust, even if that made it hard to pick up a slice what with all the toppings - tomatoes, bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, artichoke, mushrooms. Definitely tasty, and the artichoke was an unusual touch.

With its combination of eggplant, olives, zucchini, capsicum, tomato and mozzarella cheese, this one tasted as good as it looked. The crust was crispy and it had a zesty flavour. The generous toppings gave it a nice bite and made us forget it was a vegetarian pizza!

Tired of pepperoni, seafood or beef in your pizza? We tried six vegetarian ones, and didn't feel at all deprived.

A simple pizza that's big on taste, we just couldn't get enough of it. From the thin fluffy crust to the yummy cheese and juicy mushrooms, everything was as they should be. There were even generous portions of black truffles. It's a pity they don't deliver.
