The Malting House in Skerries

02/07/2025: Incredible Pizza & Authentic Italian Vibes at La Scarpetta! La Scarpetta is hands down one of the best Italian spots I’ve been to! If you’re a pizza lover, this place is a must. The crust is perfectly thin and crisp with just the right amount of chew—clearly made with skill and passion. Each pizza is wood-fired to perfection, with high-quality, fresh ingredients that speak for themselves. We tried the Special pizza with tomato sauce, spicy salami ,nduja,hot honey .The tomato sauce was rich and flavoured , the mozzarella was creamy and melted beautifully, and the toppings were generous without overpowering the balance of flavours. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. The Tartufo Nero dessert was the perfect balance of rich dark chocolate and creamy indulgence.The outer shell had a satisfying coca powder,giving way to a smooth cream , velvety center with just the right hint of bitterness from the dark chocolate and a touch of sweetness. Each bite felt luxurious and deeply satisfying. If you're a chocolate gelato lover, this dessert is non-negotiable – a true showstopper! I would come back just for this. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a touch of rustic Italian charm. The staff was friendly, attentive, and happy to walk us through the menu and wine pairings. We felt well taken care of from start to finish. La Scarpetta has definitely earned a spot on our go-to list. Whether you're dining in or grabbing a casual pizza night, it's a five-star experience every time. Highly recommend!
