Praise for Ai Pini's pizza is ubiquitous among visitors.

As Dean Schweizer enthused, it's the best pizza he's had on his journey, setting a high bar that few can match.

“ Noch ein Tipp: der beste Pizzaboden, den ich je gegessen habe, gibt es im Ai Pini. Hier gibt es die perfekte Pizza mit 3 schwarzen Blasen im Rand. Das Mehl ist neben der langen Ruhezeit für den Teig das Geheimnis. Unbedingt reservieren - ist ein ziemlicher Aufwand hier hoch zu kommen. Der Belag ist sehr gut, aber nicht der beste in der Region. Sie machen hier auch Brot - unbedingt mit Nutella als süße Nachspeise bestellen! ”
“ Una delle migliori pizzerie dell’arceviese e della vallesina. Ottime pizze gourmet e tradizionali. Veniamo diverse volte l’anno a mangiare in questo locale e rimaniamo sempre piacevolmente sorpresi. Personale sempre gentili e disponibili. In estate si sta da dio nel cortiletto esterno adiacente al locale. In inverno la sala è un po’ piccola ma accogliente. In sintesi consigliatissimo sopratutto se volete gustarvi una bella pizza gourmet e qualche dolce sfizioso! ”
“ Ogni volta che vengo ad Arcevia ceno qui, pizze e antipasti davvero ottimi! Ho provato diverse pizze, bianche e rosse, e la mia preferita è la Quajà 2.0, che consiglio assolutamente. Inoltre, il servizio è sempre preciso e puntuale. ”
“ La pizza è ottima. L’impasto è soffice con il bordo alto e ben cotto, tipo Napoli, con le classiche bolle bruciacchiate. Ottimo il servizio ai tavoli svolto da ragazzi giovani ma professionali e disponibili. Consigliato ”
“ Fantastic family dinner. Best pizzas we had so far on our trip and the dessert was delicious. ”
