22/03/2026: When you're with friends, you quickly forget about the restaurant service, because the relaxed atmosphere makes you think about other things. Restaurant owners know this well. The menu is quite good in terms of choice. But there were some oversights. No carafe of water, which should be provided automatically (even if we didn't have children, it's mandatory in France). Likewise, no bread basket. I had to ask three times for a drink (my neighbor to the left) that was supposed to accompany a dish (the drink I ordered arrived almost at the end of the meal) 😕. My dish didn't arrive at the same time as everyone else's (this isn't a big deal), but more importantly, it was cold inside (we know the process of reheating a cold dish in the microwave, as we sometimes do at home 😉). The waiter was good, and thankfully, that made up for these minor inconveniences. We were poorly seated in the dining room, right next to the entrance. Despite the airlock, I had to close the door twice because the cold air was coming in. There was a rather large (old) cobweb on the ceiling in the restroom. We would still come back, and certainly, because you can only improve by asking for customer feedback to be more attentive next time. Even in restaurants with only four seats, there are hiccups. Pizza del Arte lives up to its status as a second-category restaurant. Well done, because it's a great alternative for non-gastronomic meals. That's what we came for. Great team in Chambourcy.
