Italian fast food at its finest (and cheapest) from a walk-in, walk-out snack bar setting. Here, you’ll find authentic, puffy Sicilian pizza for only $1 a slice (actually a square, since it’s cooked on a square pan), and other Italian specialty snacks like panazrotti and arancini. Normally, the line out the door marks the spot for this hidden away North End pizza joint, but if it’s an off-day, look carefully between other well-marked restaurants, or else you might never know it’s there. Note to self; the food is so delicious and completely filling, you might have to skip out on that romantic North End dinner you intended, so plan your meals accordingly.
