Terrible!

by rolls13 at Citysearch

We ordered a cheese pizza based on the looks of the one in the case. Ours didn't resemble that AT ALL. The one on display had lots of nice gooey cheese. Ours had hardly any cheese or sauce and it was cold. It seemed like it had been precooked and maybe heated up before being boxed. Very dry, brown cheese. Our other pizza was mushroom. Mushrooms were good but the pizza again was cold. We were sitting RIGHT there in the tiny store and no one told us when our pizzas were ready. They ended up sitting, boxed, on the counter for I don't know how long before I went up to see what was taking so long. Two young girls were working and were totally uninterested in taking care of customers. Very disappointing after hearing good things about this place.

• Pros: Close to where were staying
• Cons: Cold, boring pizza, bad service

Pepperoni Pizza Pleaser!!!

by 33304 at Citysearch

This place deserves FIVE stars, and HELLO it's REASONABLY priced! It's a mom and pop shop that has something a bit special in its kitchen.

We're NYers that just relocated to the area in search of a mama's style pizza with a flavorful kick--Thin Crust, Serious Sauce, Spicy Pepperoni and Roasted Garlic. Delivery please?!?!

It's counter person is a real sweetie, don't be put off by her accent. Aye, she's just taking the time to get your order right.

We consider this pizza style, NYC flavor with Fort Lauderdale punched dough ...could be to ensure that your palate pops, but your hips do not.

Now, That's AMORE!

• Pros: Two thumbs up!
• Cons: no menu delivered

Absolutely delicious gourmet pizza

by Flynn9341 at Citysearch

We loved this pizza and are pizza connoisseurs. I'm already looking forward to going back and it's only been 2 days. Their specialty is the square, pan pizza. It's like grandma made it. Thin , fresh, crisp delicious crust, not thick & doughy and the toppings fresh. I had the spicy pepperoni "slice" which equates to a personal-sized pizza at $4.50, which is cut into 6 squares. It came topped with spicy pepperoni, tiny bits of crisp bacon, bits of green pepper, very thin ribbons of red onion, diced fresh tomato, spices, and cheese with tomato sauce. LOVED it. Very gourmet. My husband had the roasted vegetables for toppings and we tasted each other's. The L-shaped glass case displays about 8 or 10 different already-made pan pizzas to choose your slice from as far as toppings. or you can order a whole pie made to order and they had tons of choices. We ate outside and watched all the dolly birds totter to Mortarano's.

• Pros: Delicious pizza like you've never tasted.
• Cons: Parking, no tables for dining in just some pub tables & stools.
