Feedback
I didn’t take a picture of my pizza today, but I ordered a large pie with vodka sauce and pepperoni. It was a bit pricey, but worth every penny! Let me tell you, this pizza is on a whole different level. The freshness of the ingredients is unbeatable; you really get what you pay for. I enjoyed it so much that I called to thank the person who made it. I told him how fantastic it was and that I will definitely be ordering it every week. I highly recommend anyone in Whitestone to skip the cheap pizza and go straight for the best. You won’t regret it! From the very first bite, you’ll realize you’re experiencing something truly extraordinary. It’s unbelievable—it felt like I was in heaven!!!!!!!
In my opinion, this place serves the best pizza in New York. Unfortunately, they no longer have a location in Midtown, which is a real disappointment. I used to visit every time I came to the city. The pasta fagioli was fantastic too. Just great food and great people. I really miss them. I drive to the city from Rhode Island, and it’s too bad that Queens is out of the way, or I would definitely stop by on my way in or out. Maybe I’ll make a detour after all! Keep up the great work, guys!
