A newer Lexington Avenue spot in a former long-running pizza space, now built around grandma-style squares, stuffed-crust Sicilians, and a fuller Italian menu with salads, wings, and pastas. It’s best when you treat it like a sit-down pizzeria where you share a couple of specialty pies and a starter instead of just grabbing one basic slice.
Must-Try Dishes:
Grandma Rainbow MVP Pizza, Stuffed Crust Sicilian Pizza, Homemade Mozzarella Sticks
