I Heard great things about this Pizza from my foodie brother, so we we decided to take a ride from Clifton Park & we weren’t disappointed. The Pizza is great….thin crust, great sauce, real cheese!!! BUT THE SERVICE IS AMAZING!!!! An employee named Jack was impressive… my husband and I dined in, with 4 boys on a Friday at 6pm!!! Has to be the busiest time ever for Pizzerias! Jack was beyond attentive to each pick up order, online order, and managed to walk us through the menu, make suggestions and smile!!!! After his 4th trip to our table, I had to ask if he was the owner! Only a good business owner really invests such time and effort for each customer, especially new ones! He explained he was actually a Manager (I see the owners are smart in who they chose for management!), and I complimented him for making the experience so pleasant. Food is great (gennaro lg pie, cheese lg pie, pepperoni lg pie, gennaro wings, & hot wings), quality is there, space is clean and trendy… BUT the service is what made the world of difference this time… thank you Jack! And the team that supports the restaurant! We will be back, and we will spread the word. Family friendly!

Best pizza ever.

Great pizza - ordered from them twice, 3 times in the past. I spoke to the owner - only qualms I have is they don't offer a Hawaiian pizza. Pineapples. One of the most popular toppings in America. They don't offer it so.. its a place I'll order from like once a year now. If they offered it, I'd order from them like once to twice a month. Wood fired oven - amazing quality pizza. 5 stars if pineapples aren't an issue for you.

I really enjoyed this pizza. Only got two slices of normal cheese for a quick bite and it was yummy. It tastes how it looks. Great size slices too. The pizza is thin which is nice, sauce tastes great, and the slight char on the end is flavorful.

DO NOT. Come to this pizza place we ordered form here and first off it took so long to get here. Then when we received the pizza it looked like this. And when we tried to call the place back they totally ignored us. If you want good pizza I don't recommend this place.

Very good! One of the better options in the area.

DO NOT go here at all. Beyond unsanitary. Guy that's making your pizza is cleaning the area which is good. But than after cleaning the area instead of washing his hands starts to make the pizza. Fact they pass a health inspection is surprising. I'm surprised you don't have nasty crap in your pizza !

Pretty such that's a health code violation if ever had one !!

A great local pizzeria with great staff! Check them out! First time I've been asked if I like my pizza crispy or not... was a nice little touch!

The porchetta sub is absolutely fantastic. A must try for anyone who hasn’t had it.

Best pizza and wings in Albany. Staff are friendly and really know how to properly bake a pizza! Pizza crust is perfectly baked, veggies are fresh and the wings are always tender and flavorful. Antipasto salads are always freshly made.

This is my fav pizza spot in the area. Really delicious wood fire pizza! Great atmosphere and people. Very friendly!

Food was okay but the disappoint comes from the customer service. Ordered one of the specialty pizzas that has prosciutto di parma on it. We got home with our order and there was no meat on the pizza. No problem things happen. We called and they apologized saying that happens sometimes and we could drive back to have the prosciutto put on. We explained we lived about 25 mins away and asked if we could just get a partial credit for next time we ordered instead. We were told there's no way to do that in the system and there's was nothing they could do. I've worked in customer service my whole life and I understand things happened all the time. Even if the person on the phone didn't have the ability to do something an email from a manager at a later time would have been fine. Driving back to have it put on our cold pizza does not seem like the best solution. Mind you, we had a fairly large order. Two orders of wings and 2 orders of garlic knots on top of the pizza. This does not encourage repeat customers when you are a new business to the area.

Went for the Porchetta Sub with a giant chocolate chip cookie. Absolutely delicious. The seasoned pork was lean and tasty with the right about of cheese in a crispy sub roll. The sub was a big portion so I could save half for the next day. The cookie was also delicious.
