"I'll be honest, Westchester is pretty weak when it comes to the NY pizza game. Outside of a certain legendary place in Mount Vernon, pizza in the neighborhood is average, at best. That being said, I am very happily surprised by this pizza, which I find to be an excellent representation of the quintessential NY-style pizza. The dough is a good mix of chewy and crispy, without being tough, and the crust has a nice crunch to it. I also love when a place knows to leave the crust minimal, putting the sauce and cheese almost to the edge. The dough has good flavor to it and the right amount of dry flour on the edges for extra goodness. The sauce and cheese are very flavorful, without being overpowering, and the pizza is cooked correctly, with minimal charring and good color. I prefer a more well done pizza with lots of charring, but I like to see how they would usually do it first and this is done correctly. Too many other places undercook their pizzas, but not here. I definitely want to point out that the pizza I received was very appealing. I can tell they made a point to make it look nice and symmetrical. I really appreciate that, because a lot of places slop together an oblong and uneven pizza with no attention to detail or balance of taste. It's a nice touch. It's not a great pic, because I already ate half, unfortunately. If I had to nitpick: there could be a little less sauce and cheese, and the pizza could be a little thinner. It is quite a substantial slice and may be just a bit too heavy. All in all, this is a really excellent pizza, even for NY, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone. I hope the consistency matches this first impression. I love that their on Slice and the employees were nice. I'd definitely go back. Portnoy would probably say it's a great football pie and give it a 7.9."
