What diners are saying
Diners celebrate this Bushwick spot as a top-tier neighborhood joint, praising its authentic, "no-frills" approach to pizza. Reviewers consistently highlight the exceptional Sicilian pies, which one guest notes does the style justice, alongside delicious Neapolitan and grandma slices. While long-time fans cherish the typically sophisticated, crusty bread and high-quality toppings, recent feedback suggests some inconsistency with delivery and crust texture. Despite occasional service hiccups, locals and visitors alike regard it as a favorite for simple, well-executed New York slices.
