Best pizza Ive had yet in Montclair. Most similar to our favorite pies in NYC. We get the standard cheese pizza and its thin & crisp with just the right amount of sauce. It helps that I live close enough to pick it up and bring it home piping hot.

Ive been a regular for some time now. Owners Jon and Chris are great people and they take pride in their pizza. My family orders a Chicken Bacon Ranch pie every other week it seems! Quick delivery too. Definitely my go-to spot in this area. Highly recommend!!

Ordered a personal sized pizza for pick-up the other day with some specific additions (veggie toppings on the left and meat toppings on the right). No mistakes made, the order was ready right on time, and the pizza itself hit the damn spot. They have quite a team working fastidiously in the small storefront, ensuring the wait isn't long. I also appreciate their sign permitting just one customer in the store at a time -- the least we can do is respect the worker's space and other customers.
