    Pizzas, love them or hate them, we think they're remarkably delicious. Featuring an array of crispy, crusty and well-baked crust alongside fresh toppings, tangy tomato sauce and melted cheese, the combinations may be pretty standard but everything is done to Italian perfection. Hence, do not expect your pizza to come in a perfect circle.

    Cash only.

    Limited seating areas with delicious pizzas.
