What can you say about a restaurant that makes you feel at home and steers you to authentic Italian cuisine without becoming a parody? To call this a ‘Pizzeria” is to lose something in the American translation. It is NOT your typical Roman pizzeria, and it is certainly not your Orange, New Jersey one either. The real restaurant in below ground level, so don’t be fooled by the outdoor seating. You want to go downstairs where the action is. Marcello was our waiter. A young man with an enormous knowledge of the the menu and a smile to match. He is the owner’s 16 year old son and a delight. Home recipes(tripe, boar, etc.) make the sauces jump out at you. Don’t miss this place.

I loved this place! The owner doesn’t speak Italian very well, so you know it’s not too touristy. I got the spaghetti with tomato sauce and cheese, which although sounds very simple, was delicious. I couldn’t stop stuffing it in my mouth. My friend got the flour gnocchi, which were like little flour pillows, so chewy and soft.
