Ed L.

Wow this place was a bad experience. First of all, all of their pizzas are pre-made... they just toss it in the oven. I know this is a common practice, but this does not live up to any real good New York style pizza. Honestly, this level of pizza is akin to something you might get in a bowling alley. The one good thing about the pizza is that it's very thin, but they are so greasy that you need a mop to sop up all the grease--and the crust is dry like cardboard. The interior of the place is nice and the bathroom was clean. What grossed me out is the fact that the owner or the manager was just standing back in the food prep area/space where you select your pizza just scarfing down pizza slice after pizza slice. Nobody wants to see that. Oh, and you can't get cups of water there, you have to buy a bottle. Bottom line is that this place isn't any good. It's not good pizza. Little Charlie's and Sal's are much better pizza options in Williamsburg.

Specialty Slice: (forget what the first was called) but it's an all meat and the second slice is a buffalo chicken slice.

I really enjoyed eating here. Most of the staff was nice and welcoming as we entered. Service was relatively fast. They got us our pizza slices quickly and it took a few minutes for our garlic knots but that was expected. They also checked on us frequently if we needed anything else which was nice as well. The food was so good!! I can't wait to move down here and be able to eat here occasionally.

Sicilian slice!

First let me say that the pizza here is some of the best in the area. Service is decent and the ambiance reminds me of NYC Pizza shops. I would normally give 5 stars here but I have to mention that their daily operating hours are totally bipolar. They change often and sometimes you can show up during their scheduled open timeframe and be disappointed by a paper note taped to the door stating a totally different schedule than advertised online. For that reason I can only give 3 stars. If they get more consistent their schedule I would comeback and update my review because they definitely serve a really good pizza product here.

Pepperoni and sausage as well as Buffalo Chicken

Had lunch there recently while out shopping and split 2 slices with my wife, costing nearly $13, no drinks. Scrumptious pizza, from toppings to sauce and wonderful crunchy thin crust. Sticker shock probably a sign of post-Covid times, but maybe a function of a reduced schedule of being open? Will likely return for the occasional few slices, but $32 for a 19" pie, regardless of flavor, is a bit much outside of NYC or other major city. In same breath, I can't imagine trying to own and run a restaurant in today's economic climate.

I've been all over Italy, Asia, and No America...and this is easily the best pizza I have ever had. The small pizza is still huge, even my 15yo couldn't finish the four slices. The service was attentive and wonderful. Our server was kind, helpful, and interacted really well with our kiddos. I will say that it's a little loud, so that could be overwhelming for some people. But the restaurant is super clean, the decor is fun, and the atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect at a busy pizzeria. I cannot recommend this place enough. Like, I may actually travel the 3,000 miles back to Williamsburg again just for the pizza.

The ambiance is like a dim lighted factory. It's connected to a few other eateries and brewery with restrooms in the lobby of all facilities. Ordered the pretzel bites with a beer cheese. These were good in the sense of being soft, chewy dough balls to dip in cheese. I don't believe they tasted like pretzels at all. They tasted more like the pizza dough, but still a good appetizer. Ordered a pepperoni pizza. Dough was fluffy and airy. It seemed a bit over proofed. The pepperoni overcrowded the top and made for a very greasy topping. Sauce is sweeter than my liking. The taste was similar to a commercial chain pizza so younger children tend to love that. Overall, an interesting setting. We left with full bellies and prices were reasonable.

I told Antonio the owner it was excellent and even better than many of the north end Boston Italian restaurants we've visited over the years...I'm not kidding...you'll swear Antonio's mother and grandmother are back there in the kitchen cooking ...the tomato sauce,garlic knot bread..everything of the most highest quality and flavor..we got the cannolis for desert...excellent..better than Mikes pastry in the north end ...seriously..go there...run there!!!

Traveling solo, I was staying next door to (shares the same parking lot with) the Fairfield Inn right off Richmond and Bypass Roads. Arrived and checked in late in the evening and once I was settled into my room, was too lazy to head out again into the cold Winter night to find a place to eat. This pizza joint was the easy, no-hassle option to call over for a carry-out pie and can of soda. My whole order was like $13 and was ready in like 15 minutes. Couldn't really ask for more than that. The worker manning the register was pleasant and friendly. The place inside is totally nothing to write home about - this place is basically a carry out and delivery operation so don't expect even an adequate sit down, dine in area. But it's fine for what it is. The pizza itself was pretty darn good for a $10 10" pie - perfect for 1. It was piping hot out of the oven, toppings were fresh and plentiful (no skimping on topping portions - see my pic), cheese was gooey, melty and stringy, hand tossed crust was chewy just-so. Guy supplied me with plates, plastic utensils, napkins and condiment packets (you have to ask for them). I was back in my hotel room in a flash. Couldn't ask for any more. Would I seek this place out if I wasn't staying steps away at the Fairfield Inn? No I would not. Sorry - truth. But if you're staying at the Fairfield and you're looking for a decent meal that's fast and cheap and conveniently located, go here. Prices are reasonable for what you get so as a student looking for a delivery meal deal, this is probably a good choice as well. Deserving of an average joe-blow 3 stars. Not a knock - just a very average pizza spot that serves its purpose and doesn't deserve more than that.
