Decadent elegant pizza magic

Visited December 11th, 2025.

Exceptional service, super cool more-is-more over-the-top place. Beautiful location on old square, facing the Uppsala cathedral.

With a few vegan options on the menu, it was an easy pick to go with the truffle pizza as I love truffle.
It's flavourful, decadent, luxurious, balanced, creamy and just.. amazing.
Can't recommend it enough.

Bill specs:
- 🍕 Truffle Jammin' (vegan creamy sauce, oyster mushroom, portabello, mozzarella, chive cream, hazelnuts and truffle oil) 225 sek.
Named on the menu as "1st place in Scandinavia's best vegan pizza 2024".
- 🍺 La Midona 124 sek (Italian golden ale).

Big ups for serving Italian craft beer! 🙏 Afterwards we went to the local grocery store ICA Supermarket City for a brewski among the freezers 😁

Edit; jan 2026: Basta has been praised as a Top 50 world artisan pizza chain of 2025 - well deserved and really cool! 🍕🔥

Pizza and service from heaven

The service and the food was out of my words. Yes, not a cheap place. But could I be without ten pizzas and just taste this prize winning pizza once it’s worth it. I realise what they mean Swedish pizza is not pizza. It’s not possible to compare. The best pizza and one of the best meals I’ve had. Also lovely vegan dessert available

Nice, but quite loud

They have 2 vegan dishes to choose from, a pasta and a pizza. A hazelnut pannacotta for dessert. No wine was marked as vegan in the menu.

I had the pasta, it was a quite small portion but it tasted nice and was steaming hot!

Very high sound level!

Five star pizza

Exceptional pizza, definitely one of the best I’ve ever had, if not the best. I’ve been to Italy!😋
Boyfriend got the vegan bolognese and loved it too
We also tried the artichoke starter and it was kind of a small portion but really nice

Delicious overall, highly recommend the pizza

The best vegan pizza I have tried

I've been here a couple of times. The first time I had a vegan version of the bruschetta with mushroom, the pasta bolognese and the pistachio pannacotta. Everything was really tasty and the pannacotta was really good.
The second time I had the vegan pizza called truffle Jasmine. According to the menu this pizza have won priza for the best Scandinavian pizza last year. And it was amazing!!! The best pizza I think I have ever eaten, even before I went vegan. A definite must try!
The service is perfectly fine and the interior is kitschy in a fun way.
Would really recommend!
Edit: the vegan pizza is still worth the visit! Also the drinks without alcohol is a must!

Pros: Best pizza I have ever tried, Amazing pistachio pannacotta, Cute interior

Bolognese

I had the vegan bolognese and it was decent. I appreciated the ease of finding vegan options on the menu. Everything is clearly marked with an icon. They offer vegan starters, mains and pizzas. I didn’t look at the dessert menu. The restaurant itself is electric with bright colors and a disco ball.
