I came in around 4:30 and it wasn't crowded. I surprised as the pizza seemed like older slices that were made earlier in the day. They tasted good enough but came nowhere near the slice I had there the first time. Maybe it's the timing of when I came in but nonetheless my slices were adequate. Sal, the owner, was very nice and served me quickly and cheerfully. Even though there were a few people there at the time, they still had additional seating.

My wife and I visited with the intention of trying a variety of dishes, and our eyes were…read moredefinitely bigger than our stomachs! We ordered a slice of Grandma pizza, cold antipasto for two, calamari fritti, Caesar salad, pasta alla vodka, shrimp scampi, and chicken Francese. Needless to say, we left with plenty of leftovers. The standout item was the Grandma pizza, which was excellent. The crust, sauce, and overall flavor were exactly what we were hoping for. The other dishes were good, but generally average and not particularly memorable or exceptional. Nothing was bad, but aside from the pizza, nothing really distinguished itself from similar offerings at other local Italian restaurants. The service was personable and friendly. However, it fell short of exemplary. We had to ask several times to have our water glasses refilled. To be fair, it was a very busy evening and our waiter appeared to have his hands full, which likely contributed to the oversight. The décor felt somewhat dated and could benefit from an update. While ambiance isn't everything, it does contribute to the overall dining experience. For us, the biggest drawback is location. At about a 25-minute drive from home, we didn't find the experience compelling enough to justify a return visit. There are simply too many other restaurants on our list that we'd rather try or revisit. While we don't regret giving it a chance, it's probably a one-and-done visit for us.

Last night I had one of those rare meals that reminds you why certain foods never go out of style…read more-- and this pizza experience absolutely delivered at a five-star level. 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.
