The pizzas are consistently fresh, and the dough deserves its own standing ovation (easily the best we’ve ever had).

Cook not wearing gloves then I walked over to observe what he was doing. His hands look black almost like a mechanic s hands that works with grease.

Third time I called to order to go and took over 30 mins. Maybe depends on the chefs but the NY pizza didn’t taste good as before.
