Absolutely love their pizzas! Best in town I reckon! (and so do all my friends by the way…)
One thing though… The place is packed and small so if you’re looking for intimacy, you might want to go somewhere else. At pick time, don’t even dream about getting a table and if you do, well consider yourself lucky…

Scopa sits at the corner of Ghuznee & Cuba Streets.

The extremely tasty rocket salad hit the spot for me perfectly. A very generous bowl of fresh rocket leaves, a lovely balsamic vinegar, and some kind of delicious flavoursome Italian cheese (‘grana’?)…grated into tiny snowflakes throughout the salad. (Yes it was snowing outside when I was eating it).

The state-of-the-art ladies loos are groovy.

A perfect spot to people watch on a cold snowy(!) winter’s day.

I worked in the restaurant business for over 12years, and have found it very hard to find a good quality restaurant.. When we first arrived we had o wait 15mins for a table, while at the bar I asked for the wine menu, they have a range of Italian wine which I am not familiar with but the bartender offered us a small glass to try it was their house red and was so yummy. We waited less than 10mins and were seated, our waitress was great and very attentive but not at all over attentive. She topped our water up often and was very helpful.
The food was great, but yes I did think it was sightly over priced but in the end the night was fabulous. I feel that restaurants in Wellington are slacking in the department of good service and food but Scopa seems to have mastered it. I’m not sure what the hype is with the hot chocolate wasn’t a fan, but my friend loved it.
I will be back again and highly recommend it….

Wow. I was impressed by Scopa.

We went their for lunch during the week and they have really good lunch specials.

My partner got a margherita pizza and I got the pasta of the day. Both were very tasty and hot and fast.

I also got the Italian hot chocolate which was lovely, rich with chocolate and creamy.

Staff are super friendly too. I really enjoyed my experience there.

Highly recommended!

We’ve been here numerous times and have enjoyed every single visit. The staff *are* cool but have always been professional & friendly, and very tolerant of our young son who wants to sit up at the bar and watch the hot chocolate going around and the pizza being made, or be held up at the kitchen window to see the prep. It’s always busy, but if you love your companions enough there’s no difficulty in feeling as though you’re having an intimate dinner! The food’s delicious, though I do miss the pumpkin-based pizza that’s no longer on the menu.
