The focaccia is soft with a nice crunchy bottom and the vegetarian flavors are excellent. Today we had the arrabiata and it did have a bit of a kick, nice tomato paste flavor and such a lovely texture! Also enjoyed an avocado caprese sandwich- vegetarian and very beautiful with pale green tomatoes, avocados and arugula paired with mozzarella. The service is wonderful and the dining area is very cute and clean! Prices are reasonable. Will come back for dinner and drinks at some point!

Some of the panini toppings made the focaccia soggy so that was a miss. Service was friendly. I would go back to try more options.

I say this as a native New Yorker, who is very critical of pizza and thinks most of the pizza in California is pretty underwhelming.

I refer to the staff as the "Barotti Boys," and they provide excellent service. I believe the pizza is in the Roman style, and everything is delicious. The ingredients are top-notch. I highly recommend trying the aperitivo special!
