Blinken and Kuleba ordered two pies, including a vegetarian one, according to Barron's.
"As someone familiar with pizza, like most Americans, I can say it's excellent here; I highly, highly recommend it," said Blinken.
The pizza restaurant was founded by Leonid Ostaltsev, a veteran of the Ukrainian army who volunteered to serve during the 2014-2022 war in Donbas.
Ostaltsev eventually established Veterano Group, a company running several pizzerias, cafes, a pastry shop, and a bar.
He hired fellow Ukrainian veterans to work at the restaurant, and they regularly deliver free pizza to soldiers recovering from their wounds in Kyiv hospitals.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Kyiv on May 14.
