Pizzeria is a lovely puzzle that placed very well in this year's IPP43 design competition as a Top Ten Vote Getter! So when I had the luck to see that Tye had printed out a batch for people to buy very soon after the IPP finished and had announced their winners, I scrambled for a copy asap!
I had fun with this puzzle and laughed at some of the very well themed moves and pieces matching the concept of a pizzeria! I almost felt as if I should have been snacking on a slice of pizza while solving this puzzle, but then the grease and cheese would have stained the puzzle! I solved this puzzle fairly quick in less than half an hour. So while I had my fun with it, I've decided that it's not a keeper puzzle since it's replay value isn't that high for me personally.
I'd rate it as about medium difficulty or a bit lower than that. It's a good puzzle to share with friends who you've already embroiled into the puzzling rabbit hole with the rest of us puzzling addicts, but are still finding their way after doing the fun easy intro puzzles. A pizza party would be perfect while sharing this puzzle around a group of friends.

The main difference is the smokestack on the right side of the puzzle's roof. The original had a curved design, but due to fears about breakage in shipping, it was replaced with a more straight smokestack design while still staying true to the theme of the puzzle.
