About da Susy
Da Susy is Gurugram's most credible Neapolitan pizza address, run by chef Susanna Di Cosimo with a menu built around soft, properly fermented crusts, serious fried food including Panuozzi, and a welcoming room that asks nothing formal of you. Booking is easy, the cooking outperforms the setting, and it is the right call for casual Italian done with genuine regional knowledge.
Should You Book da Susy?
Getting a table at da Susy is easy — and that accessibility is part of the appeal. Located on the first floor of M3M IFC in Sector 66, Gurugram, this is a Neapolitan pizza address that rewards the diner who simply shows up curious. Booking difficulty is low, which makes it a practical choice when you want something reliable without the reservation scramble. The more relevant question is not whether you can get in, but whether it delivers on the Italian promise — and based on what it offers, the answer is yes, with some context.
What da Susy Is
Chef Susanna Di Cosimo arrived in India after what the venue describes as a journey of discovery and chose to stay , that backstory matters less than what it produced: a menu anchored in Naples, executed with enough care to make it worth the detour to Sector 66. The kitchen's focus is Neapolitan pizza in both classic and more creative iterations, and the crust is the point of pride here. It is soft, light, and described as digestible , the hallmark of a properly fermented Neapolitan base, which is harder to replicate well in this part of the world than it sounds.
Beyond pizza, the fried section of the menu earns attention. Panuozzi , a Neapolitan stuffed bread roll , is called out as a particular draw, and the fried little angels (frittelle-style bites) round out the kind of casual Italian spread that does not try to be a tasting menu. Fresh toppings, harmonious combinations, and a welcoming room complete the picture. The selection of fresh fruit juices adds an unexpected note, and the meal closes well with an espresso. This is a neighbourhood-style Italian that takes its craft seriously without performing sophistication.
First-Timer Advice
If you are visiting da Susy for the first time, come hungry enough to order across categories. The pizza is the anchor, but skipping the fried food would mean missing the fuller picture of what the kitchen does. Start with a fried item , Panuozzi if available , then move to pizza. The creative toppings are worth trying alongside a classic, so ordering two smaller pizzas between two people makes sense if the menu allows it. Close with espresso; the venue specifically calls it out as a good finish, and in an Indian restaurant context, a well-pulled Neapolitan espresso is not a given , here it is.
The atmosphere is described as welcoming rather than formal. This is a first-floor space above Harajuku in a commercial complex, so the setting is urban and practical rather than romantic. Come for the food, not the surroundings, and the visit will meet expectations. For a solo lunch, a midweek dinner with colleagues, or a low-stakes date night where the food does the talking, da Susy fits. For a special-occasion dinner with choreographed service and wine list depth, look elsewhere in Gurugram.
How It Compares in Gurugram
Da Susy occupies a clear niche in Gurugram's dining mix: casual Italian done with genuine regional knowledge. For Neapolitan pizza specifically, it is the most credible option the city currently offers, and the Panuozzi alone gives it a point of difference no Indian-run Italian spot in the area can match on authenticity grounds. It is not the city's most ambitious restaurant, nor is it trying to be. The comparison to make is not against [Bukhara](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/bukhara) or [Indian Accent](https://www.joinpearl.co/restaurants/indian-accent) , those are different categories with different price expectations , but against the broader field of casual international dining in Gurugram, where da Susy punches above its weight for the effort required to visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are alternatives to da Susy in Gurugram?
Da Susy is the clearest option in Gurugram for Neapolitan-tradition pizza with a genuine regional approach from chef Susanna Di Cosimo. For a contrast in format and cuisine, Indian Accent (New Delhi) or Bukhara (ITC Maurya) serve as the area's benchmarks for high-end Indian dining, but neither competes on the casual Italian front. Within Gurugram's mall-dining circuit, da Susy's Neapolitan focus sets it apart from generic Italian chains.
Can da Susy accommodate groups?
Da Susy is on the first floor of M3M IFC in Sector 66, a commercial complex setting that typically supports flexible table arrangements for groups. The welcoming atmosphere the venue is noted for suggests it handles casual group bookings without difficulty. For larger parties, contacting the restaurant directly is advisable since phone and booking details are not publicly listed.
Does da Susy handle dietary restrictions?
The menu at da Susy spans Neapolitan pizza, fried foods, Panuozzi, and fresh fruit juices, which gives vegetarians reasonable options given how pizza menus are typically structured. Specific allergen or dietary accommodation details are not documented, so if you have strict requirements, reach out before visiting. The fried items and egg-based preparations like fried little angels may be relevant to flag in advance.
What should I order at da Susy?
Start with the pizza — chef Susanna Di Cosimo's crust is described as soft, light, and digestible, available in both classic Neapolitan and more creative versions with fresh-ingredient toppings. Don't skip the fried food section: the Panuozzi and fried little angels are specifically called out as highlights worth ordering. Round out the meal with a fresh fruit juice and finish with an espresso.
Is da Susy good for a special occasion?
Da Susy works well for a relaxed celebratory meal, particularly if the group values regional Italian authenticity over formal dining theatre. The setting at M3M IFC is casual rather than destination-grand, so it suits birthdays or low-key celebrations better than milestone dinners where atmosphere carries the occasion. If the event calls for something more formal, Indian Accent in New Delhi is the stronger choice for that brief.

Da Susy sits in a different category from most of Gurugram's well-known dining names. Bukhara, Indian Accent, and Dum Pukht are all Indian cuisine operations with established reputations, formal service registers, and price points to match. If your dinner agenda is Indian cooking at its most serious, those are the right addresses. Da Susy does not compete on that axis — it offers something those venues do not: a specific, regional Italian identity anchored in Naples, executed by a chef who arrived with that knowledge and built a menu around it.
The more useful comparison is between da Susy and O Pedro and Varq as casual-to-mid registers in the broader Gurugram and NCR dining conversation. O Pedro brings genuine Goan culinary knowledge to its menu, making it a peer in the sense that both venues are built on a chef's specific regional expertise rather than generic international menus. If you want coastal Indian over Italian, O Pedro is the equivalent call. Varq operates at a more international, hotel-influenced level, and while polished, it lacks da Susy's point-of-view specificity.
For value, da Susy is almost certainly the easier decision: no price data is published, but a Neapolitan pizza and fried-food format in a commercial complex setting will run considerably less per head than an evening at Indian Accent or Bukhara. Booking difficulty is low across all options listed here, so that is not a differentiating factor. The decision comes down to cuisine: if you want the most authentic Italian you can find in Gurugram, da Susy is the answer. If you want India's best at a higher spend, Indian Accent is the benchmark.
