Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for casual dates than romantic ones - it's family-oriented with kids around, but perfect for a low-key pizza date if you want somewhere unpretentious
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, they don't take reservations - it's first come, first served. Rarely more than a 20-minute wait even on weekends
Is it kid-friendly? Extremely - high chairs, kids menu with smaller portions, crayons provided, and staff that's patient with families. Plus kids eat free Tuesdays with adult entrée purchase
Best For
Better for: More authentic NY-style pizza than chains, better value than trendy Italian spots, faster and more casual than upscale Pico restaurants
Skip if: You want fine dining Italian, need an extensive wine list, or prefer Neapolitan-style thin crust over NY-style
