Feeling peckish after your last meal? Their jury is still out on which pizza is the ultimate must-try, but many rave about the classic Margherita for its simplicity and depth of flavor, and the Pepperoni Pizza for those craving a bit more zest. Personally, I found myself enamored with their signature pies that perfectly balance fresh ingredients with bold flavors.

great pizza really good service good drink selection not packed just a great place... lots of pizza selections as well as topping
SUPERB! Amazing customer service and food was AWESOME. This was the best place I have ever eaten pizza. The dough was perfect and the margherita pizza was the best margherita I had ever tasted. Overall an awesome experience.
Always passed by this corner place down the block on the way to work but never tried it. Was too lazy to walk all the way to FiDi for Little Italy takeout so we decided to give this a try. My boyfriend usually gets Grandma pizza pizza from Little Italy but there's a grandpa pizza, which is different. Kind of expensive. But to my surprise the Grandpa pizza (spinach, basil, fresh mozzarella and marinara) was delicious...the crust, the marinara, the fact that it is square. The pepperoni roll was also good, not too bread-y. Hefty portions...Leftovers for days. Extra marinara made it even better.
Good food but over the past two years the prices have become a bit ridiculous. The stuffed shells are my favorite on the menu.
Friendly neighborhood place, well above average food, kids were well accommodated. A little pricy but what isn't these days. Recommend if you're in the area!
I have ordered their Large cheese and pepperoni pizza a few times. They are fresh and delicious. My recommendation is to order it early in the day (pies are fresher) and bring cash because the price between credit card can cash is different. You save a few dollars if you order a pie. I believe it was $20 (cash) and $24 (credit card) for a large cheese pie.
The Caesar salad is delicious.. They give you lots of chicken and the dressing is wonderful!!!
Food is cheap and pretty good. Pizza is typical New York pizza which is nice considering so many places don't make regular New York pizza anymore and are drifting more towards dollar slices. The appetizers, pastas, and sandwiches are all also pretty good but it's the pizza which stands out the most. If you're looking for good solid pizza then come here.
Very good pizza. The crust has just the right amount of crispness and crunch when you bite into it. The Grandma slice is very tasty. It also has the same crisp quality to it, but this slice is just slightly thicker. It is actually a bit smaller than the "regular" slice and is rectangular in shape, but at 4 bucks each I found it to be not quite the value the regular slice is. The place is brand spanking new. A quiet place to enjoy your food. One block from Police Plaza. You can hear the crew speaking Italian amongst themselves. The manager was nice. He gave me some garlic knots gratis. They are open during the COVID restrictions where you can dine out on the sidewalk tables and chairs set up, but I opted for take out. I had a massive meatball parm hero, served up promptly and was a reasonable 9 bucks. Many places have bumped their prices, but not here. I am happy.
