Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Skip it for first dates. Counter-service, fluorescent lighting, and zero ambiance. Great for casual hangouts after you're already dating.
Can I get a table without a reservation? No reservations needed or taken - it's counter-service. Grab your slices and find a table, always available.
Is it kid-friendly? Perfect for kids - fast service, familiar food, zero pretense. High chairs available. Loud kids won't bother anyone here.
Good for large groups? Works for 6-8 people if you grab tables. Order multiple pies ahead by phone to speed things up. Limited seating means 10+ gets awkward.
Is it actually New York-style pizza? Yes - thin crust, proper fold, sold by the slice. Not NYC-quality but respectable California execution at 13 years running.
