    A WOW lunch! Can't stop thinking about food. The BEST pizza ever! Meatball & a pepperoni. Crust - toppings were awesome! Wings were not the norm but beyond great, super flavors! Young server was terrific with recommendations. The local beer was even outstanding.

    We were in Providence for Families Weekend and knew that our daughter was craving some good pizza. We are pizza snobs being from central CT and having access to some of the best pizza around - our standards are high. This is definitely some good pizza. The combinations are flavorful and the pizza size is definitely good enough to share between two people. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The wait staff is great and had some great recommendations! Would we go back? Sure - but Providence has quite the culinary scene and we definitely want to check more places out in the area!

    Cool atmosphere. Nice server staff, good selection of appetizers and the pizzas are huge The bruschetta was fantastic. The pizza was pretty good, the crust didn’t have inch flavor but overall it was cooked nicely and fast!

    Happened on this place walking around Providence and I enjoy pizza! So we stopped. Was very good, we had the meat lovers, onions were carmalized but the sausage was a little to spicy for me, but still good.

    We got here at a fairly busy time since it was the night of a huge concert at the Amica Pavilion so we ate at the bar. We still had plenty of room. We each got a pizza, I got the pepperoni and it was so good. The pepperoni was cooked exactly how I like it, crispy on the edges. We got the brussel sprouts and they were probably the best over ever had. I would definitely go back here. Great atmosphere, good food, excellent service, and strong drinks.

    A very nice atmosphere of service and great food. One of the few pizzerias that is solely dedicated to serving pizzas. The dough is handmade and tossed. What I like about their pizzas is that they don't overload it with cheese and put the right amount on it to coincide with the other toppings on it. Delicious pizza. Plan to go again.
