Not going to lie. Not only was this one of the best pizzas I’ve had in America but it was better then some stuff I’ve ate in Italy. I’ve lived in Europe many years. Was a pleasure eating the pizza 10/10 recommend.

The food was really great. The broche buns were so soft and fluffly with a little crunchy. Potatoes soft and pillowie on the inside and crunchy on the outside. Regular airport cost.
