Creative Roman-style pizzas with robust gluten-free and vegan options; small space and polarizing service; good value for dine-in if you like inventive toppings.
Restaurant Summary
The room feels tiny and cozy, with upbeat music and a neighborhood flow. Servers often help guests navigate the unusual dough choices, and one diner noted, "Our server patiently walked us through everything." However, some guests described slow or inflexible service, especially at busier times. The cooking leans creative Roman-style pizza with multiple bases (charcoal, turmeric) and toppings like pear with cheeses or truffled mushrooms rather than strict classics. It suits diners who enjoy playful combinations and a strong gluten-free and vegan program. If you want wood-fired Neapolitan tradition, you may find the style different, but many praise the flavor and cocktail pairings. For families, pizza is inherently kid-friendly. There is no stated kids menu, but simpler pies and sharable plates work well. Seating is tight and some tables near the door get drafts, so ask for a cozier spot. Gluten-free and vegan options mean most family members can find something, though creative toppings may not suit picky eaters.
