Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if you’re going casual—better for a quick slice than a sit-down date. Works post-bar or late-night hangout.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—counter and small tables are first come, first served. No reservations accepted.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes, families stop in early evening; quick service and pizza-by-the-slice make it easy for kids.
Best For
Better for: Late-night pizza and quick comfort food without pretense—open later than most Marina spots.
Skip if: You want a wine list, candlelight, or Neapolitan-style pizza; try Casaro Osteria or Napizza instead.
