Best authentic Italian pizza in NYC! Family owned and operated since the 80's and they still make things the old fashioned way. They are old school so, they don't deliver but the pizza is worth the pick-up! I recommend their Grandma, Margherita, Cheese, Pepperoni and Sicilians pies. They also make delicious pasta dishes. Basically everything is amazing!
