Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes for casual dates - the Italian courtyard setting is charming without being too formal. Counter service keeps it low-pressure and affordable. Better for daytime or early evening when you can enjoy the outdoor space.
Can I get a table without a reservation? No reservations needed - it's counter service. Order at the register, they bring pizza to your table. Seating is first-come, but turnover is quick since pizzas cook in 90 seconds.
Is it kid-friendly? Extremely kid-friendly - casual atmosphere, quick service, and kids love watching pizzas spin in the wood oven. High chairs available. The Nutella calzone is a hit with children.
How big are the pizzas? 12-inch individual Neapolitan style - plan one pizza per person. They're thin-crust so not as filling as American-style pizza. Easy to share appetizers and split a second pizza.
Is happy hour worth it? Yes - weekday 4-6PM gets you discounted drinks and select pizza specials. Great value and the courtyard is lovely during golden hour.
Best For
Better for: Authentic Neapolitan technique and imported Italian ingredients at casual counter-service prices. The 90-second cook time in the wood oven creates that signature leopard-spotted, blistered crust you can't get from regular ovens. Best when you want real Italian pizza without the tablecloth formality.
Skip if: You prefer thick-crust American pizza or Chicago deep-dish - this is thin, chewy Neapolitan style. Also skip if you want full table service and a server walking you through options. The counter-service model is efficient but less guided.
