Antico Pizza Napoletana

Owner Giovanni Di Palma's Antico Pizza Napoletano promises exactly that. Walk through two sets of doors right up to a counter with the menu posted overhead—it's where you'll decide between rosso and bianche pizzas or calzoni. Can't choose? The Sophia, a decadent version topped with soft cippolini onions, mushrooms fragrant with white truffle oil, bufala and garlic, is a house special.After picking your preference, find a seat at the communal table in the cavernous dining room which shares space with the prep kitchen. It's lively here, as the dough is shaped and baked in one of three ovens. The show will whet your appetite for delicious pizza like the lasagna, topped with deconstructed “meatball,” garlic, ricotta, romana, bufalo and basil, and served on a sheet tray.
