| - All the times I've been here and never written a review? Well, this is long overdue. I've always loved their real NY-style pies. And since Belfiore's closed it is, without a doubt, my go-to for the real deal. They keep it traditional (other than pineapple) with toppings like mushrooms, olives, etc.
In addition to the pizza, they make calzones that are equally awesome. Not to be overlooked is the house made Italian dressing on a good, crisp, salad as well as a host of classic Italian-American dishes, like ravioli, masala, and (I love the) meatballs.
Donna is the hostess with the mostest, and she keeps it fun and often funny. Bill is a stand-up guy who keeps the kitchen humming. Say hi to him if you see him step out of the back.
This is not your nouvelle cuisine, over-the-top $70 for two carrots and a slice of carpaccio. "Slice" is a neighborhood place where they serve very good, made with care, comfort food. There are plastic tablecloths, and its casual.
Come a few times and they'll know your name. And bring your appetite, bring a sense of fun, and if you drink, bring your own wine.
Let me just say that despite the distance, I drive here at least monthly for a fix.
