Delicious pasta, pizza & gelato!! Great atmosphere for a family night out or casual meet-up. We're looking forward to trying their many varieties of gelato.

stopped in, had a Margherita, nothing else. Excellent pizza for the price. I see Pizza Roberto is still on the menu, a salute to the great Roberto Caporuscio. speaking of Roberto, did you know that he imported and installed a pizza oven from Napoli and placed it at 1141 Freeport Rd? the place was called something "Grill", and it changed ownership several times. The oven is not visible currently, as it is covered by sheetrock wall and a beer and wine bar, but you can partially see it from a side storage closet.

Excellent pizza & gelato. We got the Margherita, Marinara, & Salsiccia & they were all great. Service was a little slow so allow time for that. Good selection of gelato, as well.

Oddly enough, while it's just a pizza joint, they actually recommend/accept reservations and, to boot, ask for a credit card to hold it! Whatever the case, not much of a vibe here, and far too bright (dim those lights). That said, the pizza was really very good, while we also enjoyed a very good glass of wine and a decent DG IPA. There was a bit of a delay to get us seated (not sure why) but our service thereafter was pretty decent I must say. I'd probably return.
