The service is top notch. The food was very good. I gave three stars for atmosphere because it's a very dated place, kinda like I was in the early 80s but honestly I loved that. Very neat place to get a pizza and apps with the family. We will be back.
We discovered this little gem thanks to a dear friend who lives in the neighborhood—right after a game at the Riegelsville Park field down the block. We decided to stop in for dinner with the kids, and it ended up being a really lovely experience.
The space itself has a bit of everything: a cozy little bar area, a few tables for dine-in, and a front counter where you can order and grab drinks or take your meal to go. It’s a casual spot that seems to cater well to both locals and passersby. I’m not sure if it functions as a full café in the mornings, but I can confidently say the dinner hit the spot.
I had two slices of mushroom pizza, and they were honestly the best I’ve had in a while—cheesy, flavorful, and reminded me of the New York slices I’ve truly missed. The crust had that perfect balance where it could be folded without falling apart, and the mushrooms were generously and evenly spread. The classic toppings I love—garlic powder, oregano, Parmesan, and red pepper flakes—were all readily available.
They also had beer on tap and a small selection of alcoholic drinks if you’re looking to wind down. Their fridge near the front offered even more drink options, which was a nice touch.
The place wasn’t crowded, which made it feel cozy and relaxed—perfect for a family dinner. Our waitress was incredibly sweet and attentive, and the overall vibe gave off that friendly, neighborhood, everyone-knows-each-other kind of feel. That kind of atmosphere earns a solid five stars from me.
If you’re judging by appearances alone, you might miss out—this isn’t some flashy, trendy place. But the food and the service? Absolutely worth the visit.
Better than average quality pizza. Old school vibe.
Some of the best Sicilian around. Wide selection of bottled drinks (beer on tap & non-alcoholic drinks).
Great pizza, great cheesesteaks, great people, couldn’t be happier. Highly recommended. 😀
Absolutely the best pizza!!
Great local spot with good food and really good pizza. Best we’ve found in the past 2 years! Others have said the same when ordering takeout from Borderline. Just wish the rolls for the cheesesteak were a little better (less fluffy, if that makes sense).

The pizza is great but the menu has a lot of other options we'll executed. Sals chicken sandwich with spinach and mushrooms on kaiser was outstanding. The stromboli was packed with vegetables and the crust was perfectly done. Somehow the shape of the stromboli accentuated the crispness of the vegetables. It was rounded and I think allowed the to cook perfectly.

Didn't plan on eating a whole meatball parmigiana sandwich, but, it was SO good... I couldn't help myself! The same could be said about the Lasagna Dinner my husband ate!!!
