                <description><![CDATA[Some of the greatest take away pizzas in Venice are to be found here at MauMa’s. The shop is just to the right, straight across the little bridge to the east of the Campo dei Frari (in front of the Frari Church).<br><br>It has no official sign – we only found out its real name after talking to the exceedingly friendly owners, Mauro and Massimo.  Their English is limited but it’s possible to get by without having Italian. <br><br>It’s a tiny place with a shutter front which, when open, houses an appetizing display of bulging calzone and pizza slices. Calzone are around three Euros and pizzas start from four Euros.  <br>Both are very generous; with a thin, crispy crust and delightfully herby and flavourful tomato sauce. <br><br>The place is tiny with no seating so everything is to take away. Buy a soda while Massimo prepares your pizza to order before your eyes; in the light summer months you could just take it across the bridge into the campo to enjoy. <br><br>There are no official business hours (whenever the guys feel like opening up!) but it’s usually open every day except Wednesdays. <br><br>Undoubtedly some of the best (and cheapest) pizza in Venice. I’ll definitely be going back next time I visit the city, as much to chat to the lovely owners as to sample the mouth-watering fare.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I recommend this restaurant if you fancy a Fawlty Towers experience. I went there with my family which included my two young nephews. The place itself is quite posh, however the mature waiter lost the plot. <br><br>We tried to order two Margherita pizzas with ham on. This sent the waiter into a rage with him srcatching frantically into his writing pad. He pronouced loudly he had a table of 20 booked which were coming any minute. We all felt intimidated by his behaviour. <br><br>After being told another pizza was off the menu we quickly left. Service with a smile it wasn't!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A pizzeria in the back streets of San Polo that has an enormous range, great staff and even better prices if you're trying to do Venice on a budget.  Used by a mix of locals and lucky tourists, so you get a good atmosphere, but also an English language menu if your Italian isn't up to scratch but want to try one of their more interesting pizzas.]]></description>
