Food Comments: Everyone had a favorite, all the pies held their own very well.
"Meatballs were s-i-i-i-c-k!!" -Paul
Thin crust. "It's nice to fill up on toppings instead of bread." -Melanie
The only sounds for the first 5 minutes were "Mmmmmmmmmm...."
"The Half Nelson tastes like a garden smells." -Matt
6 slices were too much for 10 people.

Service/Atmosphere Comments: Small outside ONLY dining area.
Chill, non-corporate atmosphere, hipster staff was kind of aloof.
Best to come when it's cool outside, not a good summer place.
