Just savor the food and you'll be thankful you did. This is truly one of the best pizzas we've ever tasted; we even returned two nights in a row! To truly appreciate the beauty of this pie, order the plain version. It features a delightful blend of cheese atop a tangy, not overly sweet, red sauce. Imagine a medium thick/thin focaccia with an incredibly crispy bottom, served on a rectangular tray. It's absolutely worth every minute of the drive.

From our server not being able to find out the market price of 3 dishes on the menu, 3 of 4 salads brought out, 3 of 4 dinners served, after 10 minutes we were told they had to get the cheese ravioli from nextdoor . No salt and pepper on table, we were offered 20% off our check, then were told the price of the 1 soda we had wasgreater than 20% so she took the soda off. I asked how can that be possible, she came back annoyed with a lesser price check.They did buy our dessert, served forks with ice cream, but with so many other places to eat at, we will not return here.
