In a city reputed to have no good pizza, this is amazing pizza! Apparently a new arrival to the FIU campus area, I tried these guys on an impulse and was extremely pleased. It's a quintessential Neapolitan pizza: thin-ish hand-tossed crust cooked fast and hot. High-quality ingredients that come together extremely well - much greater than the sum of its parts. I had the Tutta Carne, my girlfriend ordered a simple pepperoni - both were as close to perfect as I have had in a long, long time.

Read moreI was thinking of where to cater for the Holiday Christmas party and I saw this pizzeria close by.

Read moreI was looking for a real pizza near home and found this little gem. We ordered the tutta carne, pepperoni and amatriciana pizza, and a calzone classico for 2 people which was a lot! They have 2 sizes available: 10" (4 slices) and 14" (6 slices), however, the slices are kind of big so we ended up with a 10" pizza and half calzone as leftovers. They use fresh ingredients and the crust is thin and crispy, like artisanal pizza which I love. They offer a variety of pizza options plus traditional Italian dishes and desserts. We placed the order onsite so the wait time was around 15-20min which is not bad. Whenever you're craving pizza, this is the...
