the pizza here is ***AMAZING***! And this is some serious pizza. The taste sensation takes you straight to Italy in your mind.
One of only 16 places in the US officially certified by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, they make the official Napolitan pizza, which adheres to strict guidelines. Here are some of them:
"The pizza has to be round. It mustn't be more than 13 inches in diameter. The crust has to be of an inch at the most, and the center has to be less than a tenth of an inch high!
Naturally the dough must be kneaded by hand. Rolling pins and dough machines are just not acceptable."
Pretty frickin anal huh? But when you taste the pizza you realize the guidelines are right on. And must have been developed by some Italian dudes over several hundred years. Or you'd like to think that.
Unfortunately everyone knows about the amazing pizza, so its PACKED if you go on a weekend and I mean PACKED! Sadly they don't take reservations, its walk-in only.
On a Saturday night around 7pm it was choc full of suburbanite yuppy families and thirty-something double dates. If you are up to waiting for a long time in a tight space with these people in order to achieve pizza-heaven then go on a weekend. Otherwise I am sure lunch or a week night is less crowded.
