Chicken Marsala slice was excellent.....good amount of chicken with lots of mushrooms (just the way I like it). Also had a plain ol' regular slice which was also good. Guys behind the counter were very good. They were patient with customers and did a nice job of explaining their specialty slices on display to a few customers on line while my pizza was being heated. Inside is nice.....plenty of seating for the pizza portion of the restaurant.......and in the back they had a dining room with table service. I'd have no problem returning when in the area again.

What a turnaround! My prior review was from 3 years ago when the restaurant was called Sandro's and…read morebefore the renovation. We would not have come back except we had plans with friends who wanted to meet here. So glad we did! My main complaint before was the acoustics. The renovation with added decor to dampen noise did the trick. I didn't even notice that the restaurant was full. We ordered different dishes and ate it family style so got to try a few different dishes. I didn't order so don't know the specific names but we shared a salad, a spicy calamari, egg yolk ravioli, black linguini with seafood, catfish, and a veal parm. I especially enjoyed the ravioli. Flavors were nice on all the dishes. I don't know if it was the company but I didn't notice a lapse in service. The servers were attentive. The parking was still ample. I'm glad we came back and a little regretful that we waited so long.

Let me start by saying this was hands down one of the most exceptional dining experiences I've had…read morein a long time. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was truly next-level. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and every single person from the host to the bartender to our server and everyone in between played a part in making the night feel special. The attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine kindness did not go unnoticed, and it set the tone for the entire evening. We were first greeted with warm bread and olive oil, which was absolutely delightful and the perfect start. Our server, Paulino (I hope I'm spelling his name right), guided us through the menu with such care and knowledge, which made the experience even better. We started with the mussels Bianco and baked clams both were outstanding, easily a 9/10. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. For our entrées, we had the branzino and a pasta dish that was nothing short of amazing. The attention to detail like freshly cracked pepper added right at the table made everything feel elevated and thoughtfully done. To end the night, I mentioned that my mom had just passed her real estate exam and that we were celebrating her. They went above and beyond by bringing out an apple crostini with a candle, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. And yes, we devoured the entire thing. It was that good. Truly a 10000/10 moment. What made this experience even more meaningful is that it came after a long, stressful day at the ER. Walking into such warmth, care, and genuine hospitality meant more than I can put into words. Thank you again for the incredible service, attentiveness, and overall experience. I truly wish I could remember everyone's names because each person we encountered was a pleasure. Please let them know my mom and I are so grateful. We dined on April 3rd around 9 PM, and it's a night we won't forget.

From around the room on a Sunday afternoon you are surrounded with positive energy of celebration. We started with fried calamari. Couldn't resist but get 2 orders for a family of 6. My brother in law got the minestrone soup that came in a large bowl and it was hearty. Entrees varied around the table. Main hit was the lobster ravioli special. It tasted like spring with the blistered tomatoes and the freshly made ravioli. The lamb shank was cooked well. But the presentation could use some work. The desserts was always a hit. Cannolis is my favorite and this is to par. The tartuffo is a classic. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Until the next event..

From the moment the box opened, the aroma alone told me this wasn't ordinary. There's a very specific scent when high-quality dough meets properly fermented tomato sauce and whole-milk mozzarella under intense heat slightly sweet, slightly smoky, with that faint toasted wheat perfume. That's what hit first. And it set the tone. The crust deserves its own paragraph. This was not dough rushed through a same-day rise. You could see and taste the fermentation a delicate blistering along the outer rim, a leopard-spotted char that signaled high heat and confidence in the oven. The exterior had that thin crackle when you bit in, but underneath? Airy, structured, and elastic. No gumminess. No collapse. The crumb had visible alveoli a hallmark of proper hydration and technique. It held the toppings without sagging, yet folded beautifully in classic New York fashion. That balance is harder to achieve than most people realize. The sauce was restrained which is the mark of someone who knows what they're doing. Bright, clean tomato flavor with natural acidity intact. No over-herbing. No sugary shortcut. You could taste the tomato, not a seasoning cabinet. It complemented rather than competed. The cheese application was textbook. Even distribution, slight caramelization at the edges, and that ideal melt structure -- cohesive stretch without greasiness pooling across the surface. When lifted, each slice gave that elegant pull without tearing the pie apart. That's temperature control and ingredient quality working together. Now, the garlic knots. These were not afterthoughts. Too many places treat garlic knots like a way to use scrap dough. Not here. These were shaped intentionally, proofed properly, and baked to a golden hue that spoke of even heat circulation. The exterior carried a subtle crispness while the inside remained feather-soft. And the garlic. Real garlic. Fresh, aromatic, gently sautéed in olive oil not raw and sharp, not powdered and dull. Tossed generously, but not drowned. Finished with what tasted like freshly chopped parsley and a light snowfall of grated cheese. Each bite was savory, fragrant, and deeply satisfying without being heavy. What truly elevates this place beyond "great food" into five-star territory is the discipline. Nothing felt accidental. The ratios were right. The bake was consistent. The flavors were balanced. That doesn't happen by chance that's ownership that cares. You can tell when a business is run by someone who respects the craft. The owner clearly understands dough science, ingredient sourcing, and most importantly -- restraint. It takes maturity to avoid overloading a pie. It takes pride to make garlic knots that could stand on their own as a signature item. Beyond the food, there's a sense that this establishment values community and quality equally. Clean execution, confidence in their product, and zero gimmicks just skill and passion. Five stars without hesitation. In a world where pizza is everywhere, excellence is rare. This was excellence.

The plain slice is my favorite and as a true Italian, I'm pretty picky about pizza sauce. But this one? It passed the test with flying colors.

The French fries are also worth mentioning always fresh, golden, and crispy. Everything tastes like it's made with care. I could honestly eat here every day. If you're looking for quality pizza that even an Italian can vouch for this is the spot!
