Lovers of Italian food go to Pasticcio, a restaurant located in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, offering pizzas and dishes cooked like over there. A real taste of Italy in the plate of which one should not be deprived!

The flavors ofItaly without leaving Paris... That's what Pasticcio offers, a restaurant located in the capital's 11th arrondissement, near Parmentier (there's an address in the 18th too, if not...) featuring everything Italy does best, with tasty pizzas,"Al forno" dishes, equally succulent desserts, as well as a cocktail menu, admittedly classic, but typical of restaurants in the land of Dante!

Pasticcio is all about Italian-style cuisine, with speck in the pizzas, REAL Spritz in the bitter and Bellini in the cocktails... All things that are uncommon in Paris, unless you know where to look. As for the menu, there's a whole selection of pizzas to make you salivate with envy, including the classic margharita, marinara, napoletana, capricciosa and calzone. For something a little more "upmarket", you can also opt for the Tartufina della Casa, with mascarpone, fior di latte, scamorza, mushrooms and truffle cream, or the Pasticcio Vero, with mascarpone, fior di latte, speck, mushrooms, truffle cream, burrata and arugula.

Prefer a pasta dish (or something other than pizza)? The restaurant also offers a variety of "al forno" (oven-baked) dishes, including tasty lasagne (the nonna's recipe, no less!), eggplant alla Parmigiana and penne gratin with truffle cream. A daily specials menu is also available, featuring a few more pasta dishes.

And if not, tartare, carpaccio, salad and other antipasti will do the trick, for a good starter or something lighter. The best for last? Dessert, of course, with a choice of pizza nocciolata, tiramisu, panna cotta or ice creams with flavors straight from Italy: hazelnut from Rome, lemon from Sicily, pistachio or strawberry Sengana.

A menu that the editorial team was able to try out and particularly appreciated. For starters, a plate of artichoke/mozzarella fritters, a pretty appetizer. The doughnuts were melt-in-the-mouth and particularly tasty. We then indulged in a Capricciosa pizza, as well as a Mortadella pizza. Two equally tasty pizzas with light dough. And for dessert, a nice scoop of hazelnut ice cream from Rome, and a homemade tiramisu, to finish on a sweet note, but not too sweet. A fine cuisine in the purest Italian tradition that we highly recommend, for all lovers of Italy!

As you can see, Pasticcio is a veritable paradise for lovers of Italian cuisine... All you have to do is get there, folks!
