I had heard a lot about this place and decided to give it a try. By coincidence, while I was on the Upper West Side, I passed by and decided to stop in.

Let’s start with the service. It’s a small store with a big line, so they manage the crowd by taking one order at a time. You pay first, and then you wait outside until your receipt number is called.

The pizza itself was tasty, though a bit too salty for my taste. I tried two slices: the Upside Down and the House Pie. They hand your order to you in a paper bag, but there are no napkins inside—something to note if you're planning to eat on the go. Speaking of which, it's best to eat the pizza right away. After about five minutes, it cools down and loses some of its appeal.

I enjoyed the crunchiness of the House Pie slice. It was thin, flavorful, and had a great texture, but again, the saltiness stood out. The Upside Down slice was hearty and filling—almost a meal in itself—and delicious, though equally salty. I’m not sure if the heavy salting was just a one-off issue that day or if that’s their usual style. Of course, no one expects pizza to be bland, but in my opinion, this was a bit overdone. Perhaps it’s due to the cheese they’re using.

Beyond that, there’s not much else to say. I’m not sure I’ll return to this particular location, mainly because there’s no indoor seating. If they have another location with space to sit and enjoy the pizza fresh and at the right temperature, I might consider visiting again.

As a business owner, I can’t help but think they’d benefit from expanding into a larger space in the same area. Offering indoor seating would give customers a chance to enjoy their pizza more comfortably. That said, I understand their current setup might be more profitable—it’s likely part of their business model.
