A25 Pizzeria

This pizzeria is in South Yarra as well as the CBD and Docklands. Here they focus on being the best pizzeria in the business. They have been to quite a few festivals and events serving up fine pizza.

We wanted to go there for a New Year dinner as we saw that they have rave reviews on Zomato. A25 Pizzeria is next to Hello Sam and the Vogue plaza and are about a five minute walk from the train station.

Wine bar

To start off with I had an Aperol Spritz ($14). Most fine and cool Italian places do this sort of drink mainly in the summer. Here it is prosecco, ice and orange liqueur. The liqueur was so strong that I could not taste much of the prosecco. You won't want another drink after this as it has so much alcohol.

The starter of foccachia bread was really good. Here they had lots of olive oil and it was one of their homemade pizza bases. It was chewy but in a good way.

The complimentary bread was dense.

The squid ink pasta with prawns (normally $21 but on Tuesdays all pasta is $14) was very overcooked. I had to wait a while for this. There wasn't much prawns in there. It was mainly peas and very oily pasta.

Rating: 13/20- come for the pizza and drinks instead. At least they churn out pizzas quickly. The service there is friendly with a smile.
