Really a great pizza. I’m a New Yorker living in Wisconsin for many years so when I get an opportunity to eat old style NY style pizza I take it. This little takeout place had the literal mom and pop in the back. The crust was perfect, just the right amount of sauce and cheese. Salad was fresh. And all in less than 15 minutes. Try this pizza if you’re craving NY style thin crust.

I would like to leave a review regarding an incident with one of your employees. When I ordered my food, the employee handed me the wrap, but refused to release it into my hand until I showed him the receipt. Such behavior lacked courtesy and professionalism.I am a regular customer who frequents your establishment daily and always provides a tip.

Used to be great subs. But my last two experiences have had not-so-great ingredients (well done and fatty roast beef). Hopefully they get back to the old way of making subs.

I go here because I work in Needham and they have a parking lot, most places around here are street parking and that can be difficult. The woman behind the counter is alway rude and has even answered her cell phone and turned her back to a line of customers. The food is ok but in many occasion is made incorrectly or not how I ordered it. Many times it's a simple fix as I have condiments at work. Today it was missing have if what I asked for on my sub. They didn't even care when I called. They wanted me to drive back and get the test if it and put it together myself. I only get a half hour lunch how is that possible after already using half my lunch to pick up the sub in the 1st place??

The BEST eggplant Parmesan sub I’ve ever had in my life. I moved away 10 years ago and I always make sure to stop by at least once when I’m visiting. Plus the owners are the sweetest couple and always make you feel welcome!

Excellent pizzas, meatball sub, and eggplant sub. The large subs are great for sharing. So happy to have found this hidden gem as the quality of the food has been consistently good and the food is a real crowd pleaser. I have only ordered food to go, but there are a few seats inside if you choose to eat there. Parking lot is small, but convenient.

Most underrated place in Needham. The pizza is consistently the best around (I have only had it when Gianni was in the back). It's better than Pepe's, even though he got more famous. A nice older couple run it. They are not sycophantic but they are kind, decent people. I saw them give a free meal to one of their regulars who had someone in her household who was unwell. It's a real old school gem.
