This was the kind of place that immediately wraps you in a cozy, homey embrace as soon as you walk in - like a slice of comfort as much as a slice of pizza. That Victorian era sofa with the throw pillows added a unique touch, offering a more relaxed, lived-in vibe than your typical pizza
joint.
The mix of high and low top tables was perfect for accommodating everything from casual solo diners to larger groups looking for a family-style experience. The vibe overall was more of a chill, casual hangout. Using the metal plant hangers, above each table, for silverware and napkins, gives the place a bit of personality - like they've thought about making the experience special in small, thoughtful ways. It's those little touches that make this place feel distinctly personal.
The owner Camillo introduced himself and alerted us that he just made a cheese pizza, so that's what I went with, a big cheese slice. The pizza chef slid the slice into the flaming oven as I impatiently watched the lightly oiled cheese bubble to perfection (see pic). The crust had that perfect balance of crispy and chewy, and the light sauce lets the flavor of the dough really shine through. This pizza prevailed easily as 8.8/10. They accept Door Dash and provide a traditional Italian menu and open daily late and closed on Sundays.
The industrial touches in the bathroom with the pitted porcelain tiles and wall shelving with black piping really gave it that gritty, yet stylish, edge - like they brought together a mix of vintage charm and modern aesthetics. It's always fun when a place puts thought into every detail, even in the bathroom where the space feels cohesive with the rest of the restaurant. read more
