Probably our favorite local pizza joint in town, and only about a 5 minute drive from our place. It's family-owned, has a New York feel, and also is covered from wall to wall with photos of old movie stars. The service can be a little slow at times, but the food is fantastic. Get the garlic knots! You can thank us later :)
