Highly recommend the garlic bread! Tried the street corn pizza and pepperoni - both winners.

Unsure if we were at the right place but we were. Small inside with a few tables. The pizza was awesome and we loved the garlic bread.

Small, local pizzeria, great casual vibe, fantastic pizza with fun and innovative combinations. Highly recommended
This may be the best pizza I have had in any place on earth! And it’s right here! AND we get to watch them as the make it and put it in the brick oven! I love getting to watch my food being made and here it’s like visual art and performance art are added in! There’s a happiness with the employees too, which tells me this is a good place to work - and that makes a difference in the businesses I want to support. Can’t say enough good things about this amazing pizza place!

Personally I doubt that the good reviews are real. Place was empty, loud punk music over scratchy speaker, uncomfortable seats, disaffected service, no ice, only non alcoholic beverages were fruity pellegrino, one pizza was burnt , and the other came out 30 minutes later. The future is dim for this place, so if the above sounds good to you then hurry in.

Best pizza in town. This is our go to pizza. All their pizzas are great and they always have a few unusual flavor combinations on the menu as well as a wide range of vegetarian options. The service is always solid and gratuity is already included in the reasonable prices. Their salads and desserts are great and they have a good selection of beers and wines. We always enjoy the vibe and cool decor here.
Bring back the frozen drinks!!!

Staff played loud heavy metal music during our time at the restaurant . The wine we selected off the menu by the bottle “BUT” was only available by the glass for $16.00 per 4 oz pour. The menu priced our wine at $64.00 per bottle and was told they could only sell it by the glass??? but we ended up paying $48.00 for 12 oz of wine, less 1/2 the bottle. This means we were charged $96.00 plus bottle for a wine advertised on the menu at $64.00 per bottle. “bait and switch”??? Waitress was good and when I explained she said “ok” ??? Did nothing or said nothing. Needless to say ownership of this restaurant is experienced and priced this wine to possibly cover losses elsewhere in the establishment. This is not right for her customers.
Parking: Park beside the restaurant in their lot or out front on the street.

Well-made pizzas with a perfect dough that you might find in Italy. Not in New York style pizza but excellent nonetheless.
