Critic's Review
This place has has more names in the last 10 years than Nancy Pelosi has had facelifts, and I believe this is the current name. Its a wonder that a place with such a visible storefront is nowhere to be found in just about any directory.
The place is run by crazy people, and its really kind of strange ordering. The owner got all excited when I paid cash for my slice, but then had trouble making change. I wouldn’t do a sit down meal in here, although they do have quite a few tables. They have a big counter with pizza slices, so most of the business as the day goes by is pizza. The slices are pretty big, and you can get plain for $3 or pepperoni or sausage for $4.

The pizza looks better than it tastes; its just kind of boring. I can’t pinpoint why. The crust is thin and foldable, not crisp, but its kind of doughy. The sauce doesn’t have much taste. Its ok for a slice at the beach. But Its not something I’d take home or go out of my way for.
Today I was walking by and the owner was on the sidewalk with a tray of sample cups with “penne ala vodka”. I grabbed a cup and gave it a taste. It was ice cold. These people are CRAZY.
