The dim light and the soothing music playing at the background gives you a very comfortable feeling when dine in at Etna Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria. The restaurant is currently having 1-for-1 pasta/pizza promotion for DBS/POSB card holders. They also provide a 4-course set lunch at $24.8++. Although the kitchen is enclosed, but the pizza-making section is actually open-concept, with a brick oven at the side. It is quite entertaining to view how your pizza is made. We have ordered two pizzas.

We have ordered two pizzas. Funghi Porcini e Tartufo, which consists of mozzarella cheese, porcini mushroom, italian truffle paste and oil, is yummy. The thin crust is crispy, and the pizza has a great truffle flavour and aroma.
Frutti di Mare Sicilia pizza is made of mozzarella cheese, bottage (cured tuna roe), scallops and smoked swordfish. The scallops are quite huge, but I find the pizza a little bit too dry. Perhaps they should put a dash of olive oil to moist it up? Taste wise, all the ingredients are kind of mix well together.
General speaking, the pizzas taste descent when they were served bubbly hot! However, the restaurant is pretty chilly (due to the air-con), and the pizzas turn cold very fast! So within minutes, you will be biting on the cold slices. Not pleasant! As for dessert, we ordered the Etna lava cake It does look pretty good, and the ice cream is actually sitting on top of the pistachio flakes. Good thought.
Although the cake has very rich chocolate flavour and crispy outside, there's not much of the 'lava' in the cake, which is quite disappointing!
