I like their pizza, because they make it however I want, and they use fresh ingredients. Service is friendly, laid back, but gets bit hectic at busy times. Busiest times are lunchtime Mon-Fri, and Friday night. Pizza variety is good. Has menu of Italian and American snacks and meals. If I want a pie they don't have ready, the Italian-American owner Antonio happily makes me any custom pie I think-up with any crust thickness and level of crispiness that I want. (I often order a white pizza with grilled chicken, spinach and fresh garlic, thin and crispy crust.) They also can bake the top and bottom of pizza at different levels of crispness. I live 1 block away, but I asked and they told me they deliver within 5 miles for orders $10+. The only people that make pizza there know what they're doing and are efficient. For counter and table service, they mostly use high-school students from Columbia HS across the street. For some of these kids, it's the first job they have, but the shop tries to give job opportunities to students that are responsible and courteous. I've been going there for years and never have had or seen an issue. They have a typical selection of bottled and canned drinks, but they don't have a soda machine or serve coffee or desert, just good Italian food. If you want that at reasonable prices with friendly service, go Maplewood Pizza. It's a typical simple shop. They don't take reservations, but they have a small side room people can set up for party/gathering. I counted they have 23 chairs in there, but looks like they could fit another 5-10 chairs max. If u go, you might want to try their version of a Margarit pizza, which they call "Grandma" pizza (whatever, it's good).
