Restaurant Review

This restaurant serving up Neapolitan style pizza is one of the best pizza restaurants in Northern Jersey.

The decor is trendy with a New York Tribeca atmosphere, with tall ceilings, red walls, large tile ovens, a long marble bar, a dessert counter with espresso machines, baked goods and a case for gelato.

Despite partner Roberto Caporuscio leaving this restaurant and along with it the baking style of authentic Neapolitan pizza, their pizza is still of excellent quality although the original soft chewy crust is gone and now replaced with a more crispy crust favored by most Americans.

The reason to come to this place is for the outstanding Pizza, and for their great gelato.

They serve up a full menu of traditional Italian dishes.

Their signature pizza is the Regina Margherita with imported fresh buffalo mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, light tomato sauce, parmiggiano reggiano, and extra virgin olive oil.

The service is attentive and friendly.
