A friend of mine introduced me to this place a long time ago when we picked up a Bronx Bomber pizza to go and ate it watching football. I remembered it as the best pizza I've had and have been bragging about it for a long time. Since then, I've brought a few others and each time, all my friends were less than impressed but I attributed it to my overhyping the place. I finally brought my family last night to refresh my memory and to use a gift certificate that one less-than-impressed friend had bought me as a joke for my birthday since I told him it was the best pizza. We ordered the extra large Bronx Bomber, the linguine with clams, and a side of meatballs. As much as I wanted to validate my past opinion, the food was really just average in my humble opinion. You can tell the ingredients were fresh but the flavors were just so-so. The pizza was ok, the linguine was better though my family thought it was a little bland and oily, but the meatballs were lacking (which surprised all of us since this is a very authentic Italian restaurant). The service was great and the small little mom and pop atmosphere was very homey. Would come back but will definitely not be hyping this place anymore as having the best pizza.
