Delicious and fun family time - I’m not a cook but the pasta, sauce and gelato we made was delicious! We lucked out and my daughter and I had a private class. We learned so much from our chef. It’s a great lunch time activity out of the heat. Highly recommend Holy Pizza for ease, professionalism and fun. Will definitely return with my family.

Tons of Fun! - Our experience at Holy Pizza was tons of fun! Our instructor, Mersad, taught us all about gelato and pizza making. Although our goal was to just have a good time, we learned a lot of important cooking tips- like how you should never crack your spaghetti pasta before boiling! (Mersad, I promise I will never ever do that again!!!) He truly made the class enjoyable in every way! We're not exactly a family of great chefs but he guided us into creating some pretty yummy pizza and gelato. After a very busy and long day of sightseeing, this class was a perfect opportunity to just relax and enjoy one another's company. I highly recommend taking the time to visit Holy Pizza and learn a thing or two from Mersad. You'll be glad you did!!

A must do experience! - We landed in Rome two hours before entering this kitchen located near the Vatican. We chose an activity to keep us awake and going and it was the right decision. (Although I think Carla, our wonderful host, would have liked to have a more lively and well-rested bunch). First, Carla was wonderful and friendly and a great first impression of the people of Rome. Second, we all learned a lot about the Roman pizza, making the dough, etc. Third, the fresh strawberry gelato that was made was also really interesting. Fourth, it all tasted so good - we each had our own pizzas with various ingredients to our liking. Carla has been in the professional culinary world so she was very informative and extremely friendly. Highly recommend!

Amazing memoirs made over pasta and sorbetto! - We had only two nights in Rome, and I am so glad we made Holy Pizza a part of our visit. The chefs were so professional, so talented, so smart, and so friendly. We booked a pasta and gelato making class for our family of four (two parents plus children aged 20 & 17). We gained so much knowledge about how the sorbetto, the pasta sauce and the pasta is made and why it is made the way it is. It was fun, super engaging, delicious, and we all want to make this exact meal at home. I would recommend this to families, and to anyone (even if you are not a dedicated cook) we left feeling full, happy, and with a wonderful memory. Above all we leaned how to make something that twill always remind us of this place. Grazie mille Chef David, Peter and Chris!
