We stopped at La Pizza Carlo because it was the first place we came to after leaving our hotel. It looked good and not too busy on a Sunday night. It was a good choice. We had a ringside seat to watch as the chef made our pizza from scratch. We'd never seen one cooked in a wood oven before... More

We´ve been travelling through south america for 7 months and have had our fare share of terrible pizza. We were regulars at Pizza Carlo while in Cusco... we went three times for dinner. Loved the Atmosphere, and on cool nights the wood oven was perfect. Really liked the selection of veggie pizzas and they customized whatever we wanted. must try! More

There were 15 of us and it took a little while for all of us to be able to sit together. The food was great! and it was quick once we sat down!! The pizza was great and you can put on a chili sauce that is spicy but great with a Pisco Sour or beer More

Good food for the money...be sure to try an Inca Kola and a Pisco Sour. These are both must have drinks while you are in Cusco. More

After reading this place had authentic italian style pizza, we were psyched to go. The pizza wasn't authentic italian as it turns out, but that doesn't mean it wasn't good. Fresh dough, good ingredients and a hot wood oven still made it tasty, though for the price I'd head to Bodega 138 (similar price, free bread and olives). "Sausage" is... More

We loved the place, it was such a cosy place and the pizza was baked just in front of you in a big oven. The service was very friendly and the food delicous. If you like more intimate, family run restaurants, this is your place! More

A small, friendly place. The pizza is good, but there are probably 1,000 or more pizza places in Cusco, and it wasn't overwhelmingly better than others we've tried. Good pizza. Mediocre lasagna. Average prices. Above average service. We'll go back because of the good location, and the nice staff. More
