The best pizza in town hands down! They import the flour, tomatoes, even the oven from Naples, Italy and you can taste the quality. They make an authentic Neapolitan pizza so if you are looking for thick crust and very heavily topped this may not be your place.

Worst food. Worst customer service. I'm physically nauseated from the zero seasoning, hardly any cheese Or anything FALLING APART when you pick it up pizza. I had to try to add seasoning to it just because it was SO expensive that it would be a waste of money, but it didn't help, and I just couldn't do it. Called to let them know, and they were entirely dismissive. Worst people, worst food. Wouldn't do it if I was you.
