I blame this cheesesteak on covid-19, city of Philadelphia and they do a pizza in their name. 2nd Street was closed between Market and Chestnut for under street stuff repairs. They had one family member trying to hold down the fort. The pizza looked good and they had a steady stream of pizza customers. Under the circumstances the cheesesteak was good.

This is my favorite pizzeria in the old city area and I have come here many times. I love the selection of pizzas they offer and the ingredients are good quality. My favorites are buffalo chicken, chicken bacon ranch, and sicilian. Theres a cozy seating area and the workers are very nice.

Friendly service, LOTS of slice options and tasty! To me the crust was perfect, has just enough crunch, but still soft, great tasting pizza!
