Beautiful and delicious pizza with disgraceful, rude, and arrogant service. I love it! The awful service is part of the experience here.

Its such a shame that the experience of eating nice food is ruined by the terrible, rude, arrogant and inflexible service at La Disfida. And on this basis alone, I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Being a regular at a pizza place up the road, I was told that I need to try this place for something different and apparently more "authentic". Sorry but this place is not for me at all. Personally I thought the pizza was like getting an A4 piece of reflex paper and throwing on some (minimal) toppings. I ate the pizza within minutes. No flavour or substance. And it ain't cheap either. As for the service, terrible and arrogant comes to mind.

Pizza was amazing, unlike almost any pizza we had had before. Speck was also fantastic, mussels were average, at best edible and full of garlic but not exceptional in any way.
Service was rushed and even a little annoying, we were waiting for a friend to turn up (perhaps 25 mins) and we were asked 5 times to order.. that seemed excessive we even felt a little badgered. It did not however take away from the food. In summary great food! Very average service however I will be eating there again!
08/06/09 went again last night. Worst service ever. Laughed when we found a hair in the pizza and was very rude. ( we have twins who are 10 months old) This was our first night out in a year together and they ruined it by being rude and sour. It's unbelivable that they are able to do this all the time and still be open. Yeah the pizza was nice but they are just horrible. BYO Wine but not beer? Then 7$ per beer bought there. Too expensive for me. I would rather go hungry then go back.

Turned up with a group of 8 (but would turn into 11), last night, as we all were not there at the same time, was told could not seat you until the whole party was there and then could only seat 8 of us. Even though the place was not full and we could have managed on the 3 tables that were spare. Was told to wait outside. The service was a disgusting and arrogrant and would never try to eat there again.
However, we went to a very nice friendly restaurant, just around the corner who seated all 11 of us no problem, even though they were a little busy. Food there was excellent, service excellent and polite. On the way back to the car, we found La Disfida still empty, no wonder if they turn away customers, that would have been a nice $250 dollars they missed out on due to their arrogance.

Pizza's are terrific, service is disgraceful, beyond arrogant and is just outright rude. Its a shame as the food is beautiful, but its still doesn't excuse the lack of manners.

This venue is always being touted by the Sydney Morning Herald as serving the best pizza in Sydney. If this was ever true it must have been many many years ago.
I went some years ago and again recently and found it to be a gigantic rip-off; simple pizza with next to no toppings at very high prices.
As with most of the other reviewers I found the service to be near non-existent.
When I want pizza at Haberfield I go to Il Locale where they are exceptionally good (the service is also good).

I don't know where this "best pizza in Sydney" tag came from. Maybe they were good in 2007. Perhaps, expert reviewers have never eaten anywhere in Leichhardt, or even the pizza bar underneath GPO in the city. Honestly the Quattro Stagioni pizza we ordered was the same or worse quality than a GPO pizza, with fewer toppings but you pay double for it! $22 for a pizza, you expect something really special. Possibly the worst value pizza I've ever had the misfortune to pay for.
And for a licensed venue, they must be joking: "house red" or "house white" $25 a bottle, limited (like, three) selection of bottled beers $7. I didn't have a big problem with the service, yes it was gruff but who cares, the main problem was the awful value for money. Honestly I can't recommend anyone ever bothers with the trek to Haberfield to go to this really sub par pizza joint. Just incredible it was ever mentioned in the SMH good food guide.

This is allegedly one of the better pizza joints in Sydney according to some food critics I read from time to time. Let me tell you I did not enjoy the food or the experience. The menu starkly tells me I cannot make any alterations to the selected pizza, no additional toppings or changes. So when I select a particular pizza which contains smoked mozzarella the waitress tells me that they have run out of the smoked version and will be using regular mozzarella.
I take them to task for making an alteration without allowing the customer the same option and funnily enough they failed to see the humour in my remarks. Try Napoli in Bocca it's head and shoulders above this joint.

Some of the pizzas are good, but some are revolting such as the seafood one. All pizzas should be amazing at $22 a pop no matter what the topping. Service is atrocious. I'd recommend this place only if there was nothing else open but Domino's. There are plenty of excellent pizza options in the area with better service and prices.
