Delicious walk-up counter NY pizza. I did the build-your-own with sausage, pepperoni, onion, and…read morered bell pepper. I liked the wide variety of topping choices! I liked that you could choose red vs green bell pepper, since I prefer red and it isn't usually an option. The toppings seemed quite fresh, the crust was soft like typical NY pizza. Even with these positives though, I felt it was expensive for what it was. I don't think a large, even with this number of toppings, should be over $30. Regardless, I probably will return! Good pizza!

The best pizza at its price point in CU, and it is not even close (since Antonio's closed years…read moreago). I have never liked their empanadas, but who cares; it is a pizza joint, and I am reviewing their pizza. Having tried an embarrassing number of their pizzas in the last ten years, the only skippable pizza is the curried chicken, which is bland and tastes more like "yellow" than anything related to India. Every single specialty pizza besides this one is worth the splurge. The spotted goat, of course, is transcendent, but do not sleep on their premium toppings like balsamic chicken. The BBQ meats pizza will cure your hangover, and some of the veggie options like the sweet balsamic modena veg are fantastic, especially considering how few decent veg places we have in town. I don't even want to consider how much money I have spent here. Is it top-tier NY/NJ quality, no, is it five stars as in "the best pizza I have ever had," not even close, and in NJ this would be just ok... but we are in CU. By CU standards, this is five-star pizza, and I would literally cry if they closed. Even by Chicago standards, this is good pizza. If Papa Del's sauce is too sweet for you, if Patricio's and Vinny's basic toppings get boring, and if Rosati's thin crust seems bland, you might appreciate the NY style tangy crust and creativity at Manolos. High quality ingredients and tasty pizza.
