This is hands down some of the best Pizza in Philly (and probably beyond). Every pie is made fresh to order. If pizza isn't what you're looking for, they have a full menu of so many amazing other things to try, from perfect French Fries to amazing Milkshakes with REAL ice cream, to filling and comforting pasta dishes. Delivery, take out, or dining in, you can't go wrong with this place.

This was a really nice, cozy little pizza shop. Really like the vibe here. Our waitress was really kind and friendly. The burgers were juicy, the fries were crispy, the pizza was cheesy and the salad was so fresh. The food was delicious here. Good size portions and not too pricey. Will definitely come back!
