WOW! This place was amazing. Thanks to Ryan for bringing me to this place. Ok, we walk in and are immediately greeted by the owner who gives us all big hellos as we sit at are table and even before our waiter gets there the owner, John, gives us all glasses of Presecco, an amazing sparkling wine from Italy. The waiter than came over to take our order.
We order some appetizers prosciutto and mozzarella and some salmon, it was unbelievable. We then ordered our pizzas two reds and a white. The first, diavolo, a red with spicy sausage slices and mozzarella, all of the ingredients are flown in from Naples weekly. Next we order a broccoli and sausage white pizza which was amazing and finally a four cheese red, which was dripping with flavor. Once our order was placed and we had drank a glass of our wine we walked up to the giant wood burning oven they had.
This thing was built right into the wall and all the material that were used to build it were flown in from... yep, Naples. We watched as the owners wife prepared the pizzas, not by tossing them but by smashing them to the circumference by hand. Once they were prepared they are sent into the oven, which I think burns at 1600 degrees. Ryan set his timer, a guy with a paddle rotates all the pizzas as they are inside making sure they cook evenly, 60 seconds later they were out of the oven and on there way to our table. The pizzas were like nothing I have had before, the crust the flavors the presentation everything made me realize that I have been eating a lot of bad pizzas. This place needs to be visited by me more often and I am sure it will be.
