Little Italy Pizza & Trattoria — Restaurant in Philadelphia

I don't feel like I can give LI2 a review that they deserve because I'm a New Yorker. I have HIGH standards for my level of pizza because I have been eating it all my life from the pizzaiolos from Queens who came from Napoli Italy. The Margarita was heavy on the sauce- like a traditional Margarita is the essence of light and KISS. There is no where for a pizza place to hide when ordering a margarita cause it shows the cooks skills in sauce and dough and how quality the cheese and basil are. I must say for a homesick new yorker it was good. But not a true margarita. The Fries are OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOD though. I would 100% come back here for them. Nice crunch on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, brilliant, brilliant! The garlic knots were a nice little change in the meal but the dipping sauce is too sweet for me. It's a cute shop and actually I' am looking forward to ordering more while I'm here...

Wow, just wow. I didn't realize there's a place still around where you could get a speciality slice of pizza for anything less than $4, so when I came here I was blown away. And, it's great!

They have a pretty good selection of slices, though at late night it can be a bit difficult to get some of the speciality ones so plain is your best bet! I am a huge fan of the fact that I can get two buffalo chicken slices for less than $7, and boy are they good. For a little while I came multiple times a week and didn't get tired of it.

To;dr: Very flavorful, great prices, good selection. Would come here for a full pie, and really appreciate they sell...

Never was a huge fan but it was sufficient. Used to be an almost weekly customer but tapered off over time. Didn't like their regular pies at all. But the Sicilian was good enough. Ordered a Sicilian pie, my first order there in months, arrived 40 minutes later, no sicilian pie ready. But a regular one which I don't like and didn't order. Hey. Mistakes happen. Utterly clueless staff though. Instead of apologizing and trying to make it right, the cook kept describing a Sicilian pie. I was like yep, square, thick crust that's called Sicilian...which is what I just ordered but you didn't make. I left and got food elsewhere. I...
