The crust’s the thing at this humble house of pan pizza in Woodlawn: sturdy yet shatter-crisp, embedded with cheese frizzles, and irresistible.

Portland food legend Vitaly Paley and third generation pizzaiolo Vinny Manna team up for some of the best pizza downtown, with a tight list of messy-wonderful New York-ish-style pies groaning with quality toppings, and some seriously fun cocktails.
