As good as pizza gets! This is real Italian style pizza...all ingrediants are imported including the ovens. Thin, crisp, just wonderful. I am not a pizza person particularly, but the only ones have had that were this good, I had in Italy.
They also make canoli to order, so they are a crisp delectable, not a soggy lump. Beer, wine and Mexican Coke available.
This place is very popular locally so either go early or late for lunch and ditto for supper. Off Broadwy Shoe Warehouse is just across the street, so you can kill 2 birds with one stone.

Rotiers is a classic meat and three. Since 1947 serving an excellent burger as well a a daily menue. I recommend their chef sald with blue cheese dressing. For some reason they took the chef salad off the menue, but they still will make it. The blue cheese dressing is the best I have had anywhere at any price point restaurant. Homemade pies and cakes too!
