“Thin crust pizza was great & you can tell the ingredients were fresh!”
Great Homemade Italian!.
My first time I ordered here and was pleasantly pleased. Decided to takeout because wasn't in the mood to cook or dine in anywhere and from the beginning of the phone call had an overall great experience. I think the owner was the one who took my order & bc I never ordered from here before he offered me a salad on the house.
Ordered the eggplant Parmesan & wow was it tasty!
Thin crust pizza was great & you can tell the ingredients were fresh! & you must try the orechchitte con spinacchi!
Have yet to dine in but with BYOB option, I will make my way back over here.
This corner pizza joint cranks out respectable pasta, salads and antipasti---plus the pies..
In Short
Western isn't exactly quaint, but this corner trattoria has charming touches like blonde hard wood floors, red-checkered table cloths and black-and-white photos on warmly painted walls. The partly exposed kitchen is responsible for garlicky, rich aromas, which, along with the din of a local crowd, add to the neighborhood appeal. Pizzas are crispy, seasoned with herbs and good quality meats, but it would be a shame to miss out on house favorites like Bucatini all'Amatriciana studded with crisped pancetta, and the near-perfect salad caprese.
