I love supporting small trucks. Their pizza is actually very decent and the best bit is their soft, fluffy dough and rare to find neopolitan style in the area. I wish they'd use a different cheese or proper mozzarella. It's turns out way too sloppy which is not the true Italian way. Worth a try otherwise!
They got their truck going. Great pizzas. Awesome lasagna. Incredible burrata. Really really good tiramisu. What's not to like?
So happy that they survived their battle with the health department that tried to shut them down.
There are no tables or anything, we took our food to Alosta Brewing which is nearby. With the cold weather going on right now in January, I recommend you get the food to somewhere close by before it gets cold.
Some people are eating the pizzas in their cars.
Been wanting to try this place for a while now and happy I did this past weekend. Tried a Salcicia with spicy salami and the weekly special which was the Ragu with burrata. Both were very tasty, but the Salcicia was my favorite. My GF can’t eat pork, so will probably have to order the Margherita next time.
First off, the freshness of the ingredients and dough is obvious from the first bite. The sausage was deliciously sweet, mushrooms were already marinated and par cooked, so not your typical raw mushroom toppings and the spicy salami was amazingly tasty and spicy. The sauce and a cheese are barely noticeable, but not missed either if that makes any sense. The star of the show might be the dough though. It’s fresh, chewy and delicious and perfect vessel for the other toppings. I expected a firmer crispy dough based on pics, but was definitely a knife and fork pizza as the soft dough doesn’t hold up the flavor ingredients even after folding in half. The ragu pizza toppings were also very light, with the real standout for this pizza being the burrata cheese. Amazingly fresh and perfect for dipping the pizza crust.
I have to note that the pizzas cook in like 2 mins, so if there isn’t a line, you get your food very quickly.
Price was a little higher, but worth the quality ingredients. Don’t take the kids and splurge on yourself :)
Total was $46 for two pies. My best guess at breakdown was the Salcicia at $18, Ragu at $16, Burrata at $6, and extra spicy salami at $2 for a total of $42 and balance being tax.

These guys really deserve a lot! Our first time here and definitely not the last. You can see that beautiful cornicione and those light air bubbles, it is a neapolitan pizza style as they claim! Plus, the pesto is delicious.
This place is the place to go for authentic Neopolitan pizza. I worked in a restaurant that did authentic neopolitan cuisine, so I know a great pizza.
This place is worth it all, and the owners are so great. Such a nice family!!
We will definitely be back, we have to try all the signature pizzas!
