The Pizza Place

About This Establishment

Hand-tossed, brick-oven pizzas with blistered edges meet a chewy center and crisp bite. The Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza delivers smoky bacon with ranch tang, while the Sidewinder Calzone hides generous fillings in a blistered crust, and Artichoke Beignets offer a briny starter. Vegans can get cheese-free pies; gluten-free crusts are available. It’s family-friendly and casual, but the interior can run a bit chilly; takeout can save the night when the house is full.
