The people that love this place - and they are numerous - really love this place a lot. I really enjoyed the people and the service was extremely friendly and neighbourly. But I'm afraid that, of all the neapolitan pizzas that I've tried recently, this one was the least good. I think they are going for a different kind of wood fired pizza here, with a thicker crust than most neapolitan pizza places. However, even when I compare it to other really good thick crust pizza places, the pizza here was less enjoyable.
We tried a couple of different pies here, and the toppings were uniformly good but not great. However, the crust - the most important part of the pizza - was really where this place was lacking. It was just kinda plain tasting and the texture lacked that lightness and airiness of a classic crust.
We'll be back to try other things in the restaurant and hope to find that it's the other items that are making this place so incredibly popular. The fourth star in this review is simply because I've heard so many good things about this place and found them so friendly. If it was rating it purely based on the pizzas, 3 stars would be generous.
