Very old school place. The decor hasn't changed since the 1960s nor has the cooking style. The pizza is heavy on the cheese but plenty tasty.

This place has great time-machine appeal - red pleather booths and dark well-worn-in carpet. Dig it!The best thing about the pizza is the spicy sauce - you can get it spicy for no extra charge. Score!...
