    When craving pizza and not wanting to go far, this will be my go-to as its conveniently located next door to my office.

    I like that there was a variety of slices available for lunch and could easily be heated upon ordering and taken out (or eaten in). Lots of people stopped by during the workday lunch hour although more seemed to be placing non pizza order. I forgot what it was but I think it was the chicken burrito that seemed to be the most popular while I was waiting for my order to be taken and fulfilled.

    Two supreme slices were more than enough. Each table had some spice jars and there are a couple of tables.

    Went here on a Thursday evening after work. It's no frills, but they sell pizza by the slice. I had three slices of pepperoni at 4 bucks each. They only sell drinks by the bottle so no fountain sodas are available. They don't offer beer, and they don't have TVs. It was pretty warm dining inside, which was kinda uncomfortable. The pizza was kind of greasy but definitely tasty. I give the food an A, the atmosphere a D, the location an A, and the service a B. Decent for a quick bite, but that's it.

    I've frequented this pizzeria place for quite a few years now and have to say that the last time I was there the pizza was good but not as reminiscent of New York style pizza as it was when I first began coming here. I introduced it to my team at a working lunch and all of my New York comrades loved it! They don't deliver so I bought six large pizza's and got them to work in a taxi and one time I even pushed a cart there and loaded the pizza on it and pushed it back. It was a spectacle to behold!

    You have got to get a slice when it is fresh out of the oven. Not heated, but a pie fresh from the oven.

    The slices now seem smaller now, and not quite as flavorful but still good pizza. Service is good, most of the staff speak little english but they are nice.

    They have other offerings and ice cream but I'm sold out on their cheese pizza, ALWAYS with a nice sprinkle of oregano and garlic to whisk me back to my New York Days when Sal or Mario had a family business and made my pizza to Italian perfection in an obscure pizzeria on the corner of a NYC street.

    Nothing like NY pizza in the world but this place can get you through the rough times when you can't get there.

    This is a casual place, but reliable. It's good for a quick slice of pizza or an ice cream cone and is reasonably priced. Beyond that it's nothing particular to write home about.
