Overview

About This Establishment

Wood-fired Neapolitan crust crackles as Pistachio Pizza hits the table—pistachio pesto, Italian sausage, and homemade mozzarella converge in a nutty, savory chorus. Porchetta Pizza lands with rich, herb-forward bite; Mount Vesuvius keeps things bright with fruity notes and a hint of heat. The dining room is casual, cozy, and family-friendly, with a shaded, dog-friendly patio for post-hike regrouping. This post-hike fuel is the kind that earns its calories with real Italian flavor after trails.
