Anecdotes & Analysis
A pizza specialist with a Middle Eastern accent, this is a webby, unkempt cafe that maintains a corps of regulars, largely through the agency of a single dish: the white pizza, made with olive oil, fresh garlic, and cheeses. The current array of other favorite pizzas and pastas fill out the menu, with a smattering of Middle Eastern appetizers. They have another location in Lakeview that’s a bit more appealing atmospherically.
