Try this place! Clean, spacious, excellent service, and amazing food. The live entertainment was the icing on the cake. We had the Stage 201 Motown. Delicious, esp the crispy sides! It's super filling though.... I might try their version of a thin crust next time. But the ingredients are nice and fresh. I love the flavor of the fresh basil. The 'chips' and spinach artichoke dip were also yummy. I could just munch in the chips alone. Our server was very helpful and we really appreciated her honest opinions she shared. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes here :)

I stopped in for an impromptu lunch. Trying to eat on the healthier side, I ordered a caprese salad and a side of wings (which are baked, not fried) and oh my was I pleasantly surprised! Everything was delicious. I will definitely be back to try some pizza.

BEST Margherita pizza I've had hands down. Crust/dough is 10/10. Deliciously sweet, but not too sweet sauce. Creamy mozzarella. Fresh basil. All the ingredients perfectly come together in a way that you'll definitely be reaching for another slice faster than you'd like to. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone who likes a hole in the wall type of establishment as this place has awesome vibes and a great atmosphere.

Very cool spot. The first time I came in they had live music playing which is always cool with me. I had a normal pizza then. The second time I tried one of their "Motown" style pizzas, but it was not for me.

Let me tell you about the pizza here! THE BEST!!!! The Taste so fresh and tasty and delicious. Brings back great memories from Italy. You can taste the freshness of the product used to make the pizza with an authentic flavor than any other place. Try the mango moscato. Highly recommended and will certainly return! There is live music on Saturday nights!

We stopped in for a quick bite after walking around, hands down some of the best pizza Ive had in Florida. The sauce was super tasty and the pizza was so crispy. The focaccia styxs were amazing and so flavorful and our server Robert was amazing. Definitely going to visit again!

This establishment is a winner all the way around! Great food, mostly pizzas, but check out the pepperoni twists. Excellent service in a fun atmosphere. Weekday lunch specials.

We had a great overall experience. Our server was attentive and very friendly, pizza was pretty great, and I had the best stromboli I think I have ever had. Highly recommend a come sit down meal and enjoy the ambiance and all of the cool stuff hanging up on display. There is a stage with musical instruments so I'm assuming they have live music at some point but there was not anything on the night we came which is fine as we are a more conversation driven group of people. Everyone in the area should come check this out.
