NEIGHBORHOOD: East Village

Wait in line or bribe some friends (you’ll need at least five others) and make a reservation here.  The thin-crusted brick oven pizzas achieve that wonderful balance between being a guilty pleasure food and feeling somewhat healthy.  The toppings are always fresh, the meat isn’t greasy, and the crust is light and crunchy.  If you’re not in the mood for pizza, the pasta dishes are tasty basics--- spaghetti with broccoli, rigatoni with baby meatballs, penne with tomato and basil.  It’s cash-only which isn’t too much of a problem since pizzas are around $10 and entrees don’t exceed $17.95. It’s a chill environment filled with candles, indie rock, and great grub.  Go.
