Since you get fries or draft beer for a receipt review, I couldn't pass it up!
I didn't see any signs that drinks were refillable. It looked good that various dipping sauces were unlimited refills, and you could pack up leftover pizza.
I used takeout, and I was able to carry it easily because a thermal shopping bag was provided for free.

If you collect the cute Puggy characters, you can get generous benefits from pasta to pizza.
[3 Reasons Why Pug Pizza is Delicious]
1. We use "Chewy Bagel Dough," made by modifying the manufacturing process of bagel dough using glutinous rice and milk, making it chewier and softer.
2. As a "Premium Handmade Pizza" made with a special recipe for each ingredient, it will fill your mouth with happiness.
3. Unique and distinctive menus offer a new experience with "Pizza like a dish" that you have never tasted before.
It is said that you can feel the original taste even if you use the "Chewy Bagel Dough" in the air fryer the next day.
Actually, I didn't attach the full pictures because I was worried that my desire to buy would decrease due to the heavy rain on the day I got it... ????
But nonetheless! Nevertheless, the pizza was really delicious. The toppings were so generous, it's no wonder it's the #1 pizza in Incheon.
The Basil Mascarpone Shrimp was a harmonious blend of fragrant basil and soft mascarpone cheese.
The Truffle Shrimp Scallop is a signature menu item that uses truffle and scallops generously, with a lively chewing texture of soft scallops and plump shrimp scallops.
It would have been more delicious if I had eaten the potatoes right away, but the visuals are a bit disappointing due to the rain + packaging transportation issue.
It's a shame that I can't capture the taste in the photo..????
The soft texture of the potatoes and the butter garlic sauce combined to create a familiar yet addictive taste.
Pug Pizza was a Gangnam Station lunch, Gangnam Station pizza and pasta restaurant that I was satisfied with as much as I expected.
There are reasonable prices and a variety of menus, so I hope you will visit once and I will finish!
