There are lots of pizza places in the neighborhood, but this is my favorite - Neapolitan-style personal pies with gourmet toppings (prosciutto, broccolini, etc) made in front of you fast-casual-style, ready in minutes, for $7-8. They have wine on tap, and the race-car-red meat slicer is a work of art - ask about it for some fun back story... And do not miss the budinos for dessert!
