"We started out late 2013," according to the history section of its Yelp profile. "Earning your business was not an easy task, but we persevered and succeeded with a consistent combination of fresh ingredients, great quality and service. We strive to meet your high expectations."
The business is known for, "Italian-style, thin-crust pizza made fresh daily and hand-stretched to your selection," it writes on Yelp in the section explaining specialties. It also offers salads, calzones, wraps, grinders and more.
2. Galleria Umberto

Yelper Payam Z., who reviewed the business on Dec. 6, wrote, "Everything is made fresh daily and there are no substitutions, featured items or surprises of any kind. One type of Sicilian style cheese pizza is served by the slice ($2 apiece, cash only.) There are a handful of other menu options, of which the arancini is certainly the crown jewel."
Jim T. noted, "They had arancini, pizzette, paninis and panzarotti as well — all cheap prices. The staff is excellent and they move very fast, it's just that there were two guys doing the counter for an endless line."
