This is my new favorite pizza place to visit in Hunterdon County. The mozzarella sticks and pizza are superb, with an atmosphere and ambience that makes it look like you’re in Italy! Excellent service!

I was in Frenchtown and I needed a good lunch. This was just outside town, a really short drive, but I'm so glad I went. It's just a reliably good Italian, unpretentious and let's get down to having an enjoyable meal. Very satisfying.
