A soggy tuna sarnie on a park bench is not a satisfying lunch. Neither is a meal in a stuffy restaurant surrounded by suits yelling at their phones.

The new Adagio Pizza al Taglio, on the other hand, makes the cut.

Fresh pizzas displayed on large trays are cut to any size and priced by weight. Chef and manager Shelley Squire sampled almost every pizza in Rome until he found the perfect crunchy crust in a neighbourhood restaurant that shared the secret.

The more than 40 seasonal options range from the classic (Margherita, four cheeses) to unusual (bacon, onion and mozzarella; baked aubergine, garlic, feta and fresh basil).

It’s quick, cheap and open late.

In other words, slice ’n’ easy.
