Dough First, Everything Else Second
Every pie starts as naturally leavened dough — hand-mixed, slow-fermented in trays, then stone-baked at high heat for the classic crust and tender chew of true Neapolitan pizza. Order it dine in, takeout or delivery in downtown Indianapolis and Carmel.

We buy from Indiana farms and makers whenever we can — Smoking Goose, Fischer Farms, Heirloom Acres Produce — and we make our sauces, our gluten-free flour blend and our cashew ricotta in house. That's why our vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free pies taste so fresh.

Great everything!

This was some of the best pizza I've ever had, highly recommend. The mozzarella sticks might look basic but they taste anything but. Service was very nice and friendly.
Ptolemy Fall

Some of the best pizza in the city. Not the best part of town but in a nice location.

Great neighborhood pizza joint

If I could give them 10 stars I would. We did a large order for a work training and Elise was a rockstar helping me. I had a LOT of questions and dietary accommodations, she didn't blink an eye at any of it even emailing me on her day off to make sure we got everything right and on time. Our participants raved over ... the everything especially the extras; the Greco salad (it's crazy how robust this salad is), the whipped herb ricotta (they were scraping the bowl), and the marinated olives. 10/10 Customer service. 10/10 Food. I didn't eat in the restaurant but it is very cute and I will be back! Thanks Elise and all the kitchen crew! Read More

Food and drinks amazing and made very special by the attentive, friendly, and knowledgable Taylor. Highly recommend the pizza of course. Meatball apps were yummy as well.
Candi Carlson
Taylor made sure we had what we needed and kept checking in regularly. Pizza and wings and fries were on the menu tonight and so delicious! Shirley Temple was yummy too! We will definitely be back!
Jon Evans
Love the goat cheese pizza with the spiced honey! Supper good! The extra charge for the large pizza was a bit misleading because it’s not clear on the menu.
