So in the meantime let me post two great places I have gotten pizza recently in the area :). And happy Friday!
This place gives what I think of as more of a "foodie" spin on pizza. Mancinnis Coal Oven Pizza is a tiny little place that has pies with BIG flavors. It is really cute inside with wooden seating and white tiled walls. You can see the family making pies in the coal oven from every seat. Which should tell you how small the place is! You may have to wait for a table but it is worth it! Plus there is take-out! Brian and I sampled punttanesca pie (which is one of my favorite pasta dishes) and a white pie with prosciutto, artichokes and ricotta BAMMMM! Yes we loved it! Then they had a really interesting herb salad with which we tried, pairs arugula with parsley, mint, thyme,
oregano, a generous dollop of creamy chevre and house dressing, all atop
a savory pizza-like disc of bread studded with raisins. I also got to have a boylans cream soda! Yes, it was quite a night!

Salugo Bistro is another new, small place. I had the pleasure of having a dinner date with one of my besties Melz! Sadly, she had to witness me eating a whole 12 inch pie which was topped with hot peppers, tomatoes, sopresatta, and smoked scamorza. Needless to say she is still my friend and she also let me eat two pieces of her gorgonzola, fig, prosciutto, and balsamic reduction pie. YEP! If that is not enough to get you over there maybe one their pasta dishes, or piled high salads will!
