    We were 4 for dinner, shared 2 pizzas which was more than enough, a couple of salads and a dessert. Good wine, some cappuccinos and all was delicious. The restaurant is not huge, but very charming, good service, and definitely warrants a return visit.

    The food was very good. The service was a bit inattentive, but that is because there was only 1 waitress and 1 busboy to handle everything. The value is good. The do only carry wine and beer so some of my friends didn't drink because they like a cocktail.

    We looked for something local while traveling thru NYC, La Pizza Fresca was nearby and had strong reviews. We were not disappointed on any level, truly a treat my family enjoyed.
