Five star pizza indeed! It's just took me a while to get here. Pun, whole ass, intended…read more We drove two hours here, and back home two hours, to eat this pizza. I am not sure I've traveled that far just to eat a meal ever before. Will I do it again? Most likely.... Will I stay here overnight next time? Yes. We found some other interesting spots and a decent hotel is just down the way from this place. I've been hesitant to review for a couple of weeks now, because how do you rate pizza that is a four hour round trip? 5 stars.... That's how. Cut to the chase here on the food. Read below further past the food part if you would like. Someone tried to ruin my pizza adventure. Pizza is gosh damn wonderful! She has now been ranked #9 in the US Top 50 pizza, and she just got #48 in the world in Italian World Top 100 in 2026! Moved up considerably from last year in both. Look at all her accolades in my pics. I've been wanting to come for more than a year now. Our trip was instantly triggered by a special she had that I could not pass up. I had to have it! It was a dessert and pizza combo from heaven. The IG post read: "Come try the summery "Sausage & Lemon Grove" special this week! This pie features our house white parmesan garlic sauce, high-moisture mozzarella, Italian sausage, lemon citrus drizzle, shaved parmesan, basil + lemon wedge." That's all I needed. But there was more. "Lemon Tiramisu" lemon-soaked ladyfingers layered with fluffy mascarpone cream and sweet-tart lemon curd, topped with whipped cream Get in the damn car, C, you are driving! There ain't no chargers in Cleveland!!!! They had the pizza of my dreams when we got there, but they were out of the Lemon Tiramisu. Boo. Cry. Pout. Roll on the floor tantrum. C got the Pepperrory, which was a fantastic pepperoni pizza! Just lovely crunch from the dough, with the spicy, greasy, goodness of the top notch pepperoni and mozzarella. I dig her tomato sauce a lot! My pizza was straight from the gods! The tangy lemon and the flavorful sausage just oozed with goodness. The Parmesan garlic sauce was so damn good, I wish I could bathe in it and eat myself! Phenomenal pizza! We both had dessert. Since they were out of the lemon junt I came for, I opted for regular tiramisu. It was delightful! C got the peace cheesecake. It may have been the whole star of the show. Both dessert yielded two or three servings. Excellent value! Now the backstory. We arrived about 16:45 to a line out the door. It's first come, first served for tables. If you don't have a free spot when you order, you get it to go. The line runs through the middle of the dining room and the FOH space is no frills, just what is needed with some slight flashes of pop. Minimal art, some cool 3D bagels and pizza, and her awards. I'd say there are approximately 50 seats maybe. Who needs more? Certainly not me. I'm here for the food! Back to being in line.... Right after we post up a largely annoying family gets right up right behind me. Like uncomfortable close. I won't go into too much detail to avoid this review being dumped by the moderators. Just know. Gross humans all around. They all sat down at a 4 top and a 2 top while everyone else was in line. As we approach the counter, I start counting seats. Math works out to be one table left when we get done ordering. We order and ask if we can have the last 4 top as it's the only table left. Cashier looks at them and says "no, I will have them get up, you aren't supposed to sit until you've ordered. I had a few adventure beers, a two hour ride, and 30 mins in line, so I needs to pee. I dip off... I come back and my wife is way down in the hall on a bench. "Sup? Why aren't you sitting?" She explains the annoying man behind us with the family that sat before everyone else threw a stinking fit while I was in the bathroom when the staff told them to remove they ass. He is still kind of mouthy and still at the register when I come out of the bathroom. She is pissed. He comes down toward me and says " guess we broke the rules, they kicked us off our table, so I guess it's yours now". Ok... see ya later jackass. I do not have the patience to even tolerate idiots like this. I asked him nicely to have a good night and went and sat down at our freshly emptied table. No regrets at all! We drove two hours to eat this pizza! I am not eating it in the car when you want to be a jackass. Word to the wise. Get there early, before they open, or around 1-1.5 hours after enough time has passed to start turning the tables inside. I watched dozens of people leave because there was no place to sit. Can't wait to eat here again!! '26 - 76
