| - Stopped here on a humbug to grab a slice of pizza today. Google reviews were praising this place for their NY Style pizza. When I arrived, there were about 8 people inside eating their meals ... the TV was on the Yankees game (of course), and there were 2 men (one older, other in his 20's) behind the register. The first thing you notice is that there's a large selection of pizza, calzones, stromboli, deserts and other Italian favorites. First of all, I'm from the NY area so I like to "think" I know my pizza pretty well. After my eyes feasted across the glass display for a few minutes, I ended up ordering one of the veggie slices (all slices are pre-made, like in the city). The young man grabbed a slice (with his bare hands) and threw it in the oven. 5 minutes later "veggie slice up" rings across the restaurant . So I take my super large slice .. . That was placed inside a brown paper bag, with a genuine "paper" plate. No napkins are offered, nor placed in bag, so I grab a couple from one of the dispensers on the table. The atmosphere is not too friendly ... But not rude either. You get a sense of a real authentic Italian restaurant while you're visiting. In all honesty, I have to say ... the slice was actually pretty good ... Really ! The crust was thin NY Style, the sauce wasn't too sweet and the ingredients were fresh. Only thing I would have liked would be that somebody have some dang gloves on !!! Really dude ... it's 2017 Put some gloves on it !! Anyway, the pizza was definitely worth the visit but I'll have to be in a "New York" state of mind next time I visit . Worth a look
