6. F-ElepHant Pizza (Jindi Plaza)
Reviewed By Brad_6500
We have been to Fly Elephant Pizza three times. The pizzas are huge. The sizes are 10-inch, 18-inch and 25-inch. They have several varieties. We're fond of the Western style offerings, but they have some choices that are designed for Chinese preferences, too. We have enjoyed the pizza each time we've been there. There is always enough to take home. On my most recent visit, I tried several dishes. The salad was fresh and the balsamic vinaigrette was really tasty. They make some great dressings in-house. The chicken wings were marinated just right. Their cheese sticks were hot and breaded nicely. Staff members were courteous and conscientious. The place looks clean and well-maintained. The environment was relaxing. I can't fault anything from our experiences there. The owner is welcoming and seems genuinely interested in customer feedback. Go give it a try if you like good pizza that will fill you up and likely give you leftovers!

If you're looking for a true italian pizza in the most ancient capital of China (Xi'an), well, I think you should try "L'acquolina in bocca" restaurant.They sell pizza with the traditional formula of "pizza slice" (pizza al taglio), with a lot of different tastes. The quality is quite high and the price is very competitive: a big slice of pizza costs between 13 and 20RMB (2-3EUR).The store is also very clean (not so common in China) and the service quite friendly, as you can expect from an italian restaurant.They also offer a delivery service, so if you lives in Xi'an and you missed authentic italian pizza, "l'acquolina in bocca" is your solution. Guaranteed by a true Italian.http://www.acquolina.biz
4. Locanda1880 Italia Restaurant
Reviewed By Lankylee
Came when owner was resting but he helped me find it over phone. You should take a taxi to Beilin museum and the restaurant is on the right side alley as you enter the gate on foot. It looks different to other shops and has a few tables outside. Decorated haphazardly but charmingly. Bob Marley adorns the entrance and music is the blues. Staff young and caring but English is a challenge.I gave up trying to to order off menu for putenesca. Smoking outside only. Saw that enforced politely.Worth a visit

After trying about every Chinese option we were tired of not knowing where to go and decided to go for a good old Italian restaurant. Found this place in TripAdvisor plus a really good review of a local site (tailored to expats) and decided to head here.Really hard to find (as we had read already) so weâve taken some pics of the way in, to make sure all readers will find this gem!Based on the 11th floor in the farthest corner of that floor, opposite an office, youâll find heaven. The restaurant serves all sorts of genuine pizzas, pastas and âsecondisâ for a reasonable price. Service is quick and in English, enjoy their work and has a smile on their faces. Who knows, we may be back again tomorrow....

I found the Cyclist through Tripadvisor recommendations. I emailed to reserve a table and received a friendly, prompt confirmation. We had a lovely meal - ordering mozzarella sticks and garlic bread starters then steak, pizza and pasta. The food was tasty, service was great and we liked the quirky decor. There was a good choice of beers and wine to go with the meal. Would definitely recommend.
