A midcentury NYC-meets-Little Italy pizzeria serving crisp, fold-worthy New York-style pies in a moody, low-lit Islington setting.
Ordering Strategy
Each 13-inch pizza is light enough for one hungry person. Grab your own pie, load up on crust dips (ranch and Calabrian ricotta), and pair with a classic Negroni or Mexican Coke.
What to order
Pep Pizza with Fennel Sausage
This combination features what critics call the 'best example' of fennel sausage ever had on a pizza. The base is a 13-inch 'biscuity' crust with a tomato sauce that is 'deep and fruity.'
Vodka Pizza
The vodka sauce is praised as being 'arguably better' than the standard tomato. Despite the 'sturdy crust' and 'hard and fast' bake, the dough remains surprisingly light, ensuring you don't feel overly full.
Tarragon Ranch Dip
Described as 'quite brilliant,' this dip offers a 'surprising tarragon twist' that is considered an essential pairing for the New York-style crusts.
Mexican Coke
An intentional inclusion from the owners' New York research trips, this version is noted for being 'sweeter than the American original' and perfectly suits the Little Italy vibe.

Good to know
Founded by the Instagram-famous 'BiteTwice' reviewers. The interior features deep, moody red walls ('colour-drenching'), making it a surprisingly great, atmospheric spot for evening dates.
