One of the best tasting pizzas in town but the most expensive I have ever seen. Will most likely wait another year or more just because of the price. It is also very thin with very little cheese unless you want to pay extra.

Thinnest crust pizza anywhere. Surrounded by teenagers trying to earn their T-shirt. It’s a Shore right of passage. Great bar, cold, cold beer. Large menu. Usually a wait. This is the jersey shore at its best. Chaotic, with good pizza.
