What a disaster.! Our pizza was burnt had barely any cheese or tomato.The base was far too oily. The whole thing was totally tasteless. A cheap frozen pizza has more flavor. We also ordered two margaritas they had little or no alcohol Total rip off.

Stopped in here for a late dinner. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I ordered the filet fettuccine and it was very good. Menu is varied and offrrs a lot of different pasta dishes. The house made pasta was fantastic, very light. I would highly recommend this spot.Thank you very much for your recommendation.

A Colombian friend of mine recommended Palazzetto as a break from the grease and grit of the street level eateries found in the area. We walked to the second level as the gatekeeper â literally â unlocked the grated security door. The ambience was Italian with the table-cloths, the art and the general feel of the place. The service was attentive without being gushy.The pasta was pasta without being memorable.There seemed to be a number of business meetings going on; the place was packed with locals, without a tourist in sight.

Given the amazing reviews on trip advisor, we were quite disappointed with our meal here. Whilst the staff were friendly and attentive, our 'beef' dish didn't seem to have any beef in it (we were told it was just too small for us to see. Our calamari was also very chewy... We won't be back...

This was the Laureles location we ate at. Oscar the manager came to our table and inquired about the food and service, something you don't see very often.The staff were very friendly and attentive, as an example, I was trying to get and extremely tasty looking piece of fruit out of my glass of sangria, the waiter noticed and immediately brought me a spoon.The food was brought to us fairly quickly and was hot, the food was well prepared, very tasty. The shrimp with my pasta was cooked perfectly. Portions are just right.

Reviewed By edanmiles
I would not describe myself as a pizza snob, being equally at home tucking into A Papa John's / Domino's as an artisanal Italian sourdough, but I had been longing for a nice pizza when I visited Ammazza. I did not get my wish.The pizza was atrocious. Overall, it essentially tasted of nothing. The cheese is of appalling quality, with both flavour and texture best described as "unrecogniseable". The base also tastes of nothing and is closer to a cracker than bread. The toppings seem of generally good quality, although are used so sparingly as to have minimal overall impact on the experience. An important caveat is that the mushrooms used are served raw and hard, although happily (unlike the meat), are applied liberally. Sadly (you guessed it), they taste of nothing.The staff are quite friendly and the decor and overall atmosphere of the restaurant are very nice. The gin list is expansive, and they stock fever tree mixers, which is a plus.In sum, by all means, have a gin and tonic here, but I implore you, please go anywhere else to eat. There are many, many better places within a paper-aeroplane-flight of here which you would be better served going to!First of all we want to thank you for sharing your experience with us, it is thanks to your criticisms, whether positive or with aspects to improve, that we continue to grow and improve in all our processes. What we do assure you is that our products are of the highest quality and that if there was a human error, we will work to reduce these to the minimum. I would like you to give us a second chance to show you a true experience in Ammazza !!

I was pretty disappointed with this place. Itâs cheap enough but the food is not good quality. I ordered a vegetable burrito with no cheese or sour cream as I am a vegan. I got handed a salad wrap. The burrito only had lettuce, cucumber, tomato and sweetcorn. There was no rice or beans (as stated on the menu) and in all honestly I was expecting peppers, onions, guac, salsa, rice etc. How you would in a normal vegan burrito! But no. Only cold salad. When I asked if the burrito should have beans and rice inside it the waitress was friendly and went to fetch me 2 tiny pots (the size that they had brought me a chilli dip in earlier) one of rice (about 1 tablespoon) and 1 of beans- which had not been cooked in any sauce and had no flavour. I did not eat the beans after trying them. And I left half of my burrito wrap because it was that bad. And i HATE to waste food! But I could not eat it. Very sadly disappointed. We believe you might have mistaken our restaurant with Taco House, which is very near our restaurant. First of all, our restaurant does not offer in its Menu a Vegetable/Vegan Burrito, clients can choose whatever ingredients they like. Second, we do not offer cucumber in any of our products. And third, we only offer refried beans which is kind of like a bean sauce, but we do not have regular beans. We would like to invite you to try our restaurant called TAKOUT so you`ll have a better experience and we guarantee you will not waste any food. We would appreciate if you change the bad rating. Thanks

We just finished a wonderful early dinner at Ammazza. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our drinks and meal. The pineapple mojito was so delish. We both loved the thin crust on the pizza. Will definitely recommend to our friends who live in the area. Gabriella our server was so pleasant and helpful. If we are able to return to Medellin Ammazza will for sure receive a return visit.RegardsWe appreciate you taking the time to tell us about your experience in our restaurant. Recommend new drinks, bring delicious dishes to your table and provide excellent service, they will always be characteristic of Ammazza Laureles. We wait for you safely on your next visit. Thank you
