Description

Beyond the classic pies, the menu includes housemade gluten-free and vegan options, while the drink counter brews Italy's Miscela d’Oro espresso. Outside, a few sidewalk tables offer a place to sit, though guests must buy bottled water as tap is unavailable. Customer opinions on the food are mixed; some visitors sing the praises of the Sicilian grandma pepperoni slice and its crunchy bake, while others find the standard cheese and sauce a bit bland. It is a straightforward, reasonably priced slice shop—reliable, but perhaps nothing extraordinary.
