pizzeria vaatika cafe

pizza packing is very poor,pizzawas not delivered hot which spoilt the texture of the cheese. make sure in delivery the experience matches like dine out.

had heard a lot about this place from locals and also it was all over the internet on every travel blog. it is true to expectations.
had the best thin crustpizzahere, it was crisp, light, with right amount of spices and salt. it found the perfect balance to meet the desi taste buds yet give them an authentic feel.
ravioli was also great. and best was apple pie with ice cream. the crust of apple pie was baked to perfection. it was served warm to complement the ice cream.
the waiting staff was courteous, brought the ice tea at perfect temperature as requested.
the location at assi overlooking the ganges adds to the experience.
literally must visit!

visited 2 times while on assi ghat trip.
loved the ravioli - brilliant.
spaghetti, lasagne and veg pizzawith mushrooms olive n jalapeño was good.
the apple pie tastes great.
gr8 ambience, right on assi ghat.
value for money!

while strolling in assi ghat, we chanced upon this place and boy, glad that we did!
overlooking the river, we hopped onto this cute cafe to havepizzaand juice.
the ambience is quite nice and spent a lot of time there as the weather was perfect.
i'd reccomend the onionpizzamore than the special pizza, if you are going for it.

grt restaurant situated at its best place ,knows for its pizzas and yaa is true ,i ate thepizzahere which was tastier and some what difference in the base i found than otherpizzamakers and i liked it and i should also recommend to try the ravioli here it's much better than the pizza

nice view in a chilly winter evening, the ghat and the aarti will not fail to mesmerise you. the food is great... the thinpizzabase makes thepizzaunique..apple pie with ice cream is worth a try, and ofcourse the nana-mint is one beverage you can go for anytime in summers!❤️
love this place
staff is polite with foreigners the brown skinned people need to press harder!

most overrated place in varanasi. prices are very high for a wheat basepizzawhich tastes pathetic. all the staff is busy attending the tourists so ignorant towards the local people.
overall a bad experience everytime

pizzeria vaatika is one of the finest candid open air, cosy & chill cafes, situated on the riverfront at the very famous assi ghat in varanasi. the place is a treat to eyes, with gorgeous sitting amidst the lush green surroundings, overlooking the beautiful ganges. there's all together a different calm and poise about this place. full of crowd that mostly comprises of students, travellers and foreign visitors, pizzeria is one of the most popular and loved hotspot of the town!
the place is known for its authentic italian pizzas prepared in old style, brick, fire oven and the apple pie (omg, best ever, drooling) !
every single dish here usually exceeds expectations. we tried the following items from their menu-

1) the onion-garlic-mushroompizzawhich was gorgeously garnished with onions, capsicums, mushrooms, garlic and cheese on a perfectly oven-cooked, thin crust with a nice, smoky flavour to it, was nothing but amazing.

2) we randomly chose to order the brown bread rolls with mozzarella from the menu which had half loaf of oven-baked brown bread stuffed with garlic paste, cheese blend and a mix of mozzarella, and to our surprise, we loved it to the core. another must try!

3) also tried their aglio olio peperonchino and oh, it was one of the best aglio e olio, we ever laid our hands on! astonishingly full-flavoured with lightly sautéed pressed garlic in olive oil, tossed with spaghetti and sprinkled with dried red chilli flakes on top, top-notch, totally.

4) and any visit to pizzeria is incomplete without savouring onto their legendary apple pie! it is virtually the last thing you'd expect to eat in varanasi, but damn, it is sensational! this is also baked in the traditional brick oven which adds to the crisp crust of the pie. buttery, soft pastry, filled with cinnamon with perfectly balanced sweetness and topped with delicious scoop of vanilla ice cream, this epic in every sense!

open air and serves only vegetarian food.
never expected to get such good quality italian food in varanasi.
the lasania was creamy and really tasty. the ravioli was cooked really well and the spinach filling was just perfect. the vaatika special hand tossed thin crustpizzawas really tasty with a huge number of toppings.
the best dish was the dessert - apple pie with ice-cream.

this place is a must try in varanasi with a beautiful ganga view. though it is vegetarian the food is just great

this place is best in town forpizzaand apple pie lovers.... pizzeria vatika cafe provides you with amazing riverfront view as it is located at assi ghat....service here is also upto the mark...must visit this place!

open air pizzeria situated on assi ghat. quiet and unique on its own, this place gives you a lovely feeling. we had two large sized pizzas.. onion garlic mushroompizzaand vatika special pizza. quality of the food was good. overall experience was good.

lovely place facing ganga river..loved the ambiance, service and apple pie.. though i reached this place very early even before theirpizzacounter was opened...hence couldn't taste their famous pizzas..but the atmosphere is super..shall visit this place again soon.

the pizzeria is a cute place to go during winters, i repeat, during winters, only for the view though! i went there on 4th of april and my experience was not that well. first, there's no entry you have to enter through the kitchen, the place had lots of mosquitoes,and as it got darker i realised they don't have their own lighting but rely on the government lamp post on the ghat, no fans so it was really humid and hot. the time we went there, they had just one customer. we ordered a pizza, cheese garlic toast and apple pie. both savouries were salty. apple pie didn't feel fresh. gotpizzaseasonings after half thepizzawas eaten. but these are not the reason i rate it so low. it's because when we asked for water, they gave us a bottle. no glasses. we had to ask for the water. but as soon as a foreign couple arrived they were greeted with water and 4 glasses for 2 people. like seriously?? so yes i rate it 1! never going again. not worth going. food not par to the prices either.

i was surprised ro visit a 27 years old heritage with italian and indian cuisine on menu with mouth wateringpizzaand ravioli to serve.

nice ambience, in front of ganges, you can enjoy the view in evening.

good service and good food, no qualms about any thing. had goodpizzaafter long time.

pizzeria is a nice open restaurant ! you can have lovely thin crustpizzawith the view of lovely ganges ! don't forget to try the apple pie
