One of the best if you like a small, light, pizza that is served wet. Great salads and decent choice of wines. The Saint Paul location is the smallest so you have to get there early or risk a long…

I love their pizza. It is unique and unlike your typical, generic pizza places in town. The pizzas are big but are good enough for one to two people. Price is a little expensive, but well worth it
