Description
The menu features a mix of thin-crust NYC-style and cold-proofed Sicilian slices built with Grande Mozzarella and cup-and-char pepperoni. Slices are balanced with enough sauce and cheese to be lifted without a greasy, floppy mess, holding up a crust praised for its chew. The staff often hand-delivers orders to the tables to check in on diners. The space also features a customer restroom, a rare find for the area.
