Our first time back in a few years. The pizza was excellent NY style. We orderef a Neopolitan style and it was nice crispy crust and authentic Italian sausage, just like my days in Long Island . The Calzones were very good as well and the sauce was very good.

Delishhhhhh! Best baked ziti I’ve had! Cannot beat their weekday lunch menu pricing! Frances was the sweetest server and recommended us some options that were all so good! Will definitely add this into the rotation!

We ate here for the first time today and was very impressed. Had a good flavor. First with the service. Vivian took very good care of us and was very prompt, courteous and helpful. Second, the calzone was delicious and made right, the sauce was excellent, and the pizza was fantastic. We also got cannolis, which were also excellent. We can’t wait to come back and try the other things. We’ll definitely be back for more.
