Nick created a unique menu item - the Nic-O-Boli. It's somewhat like a calzone, but so, so much better. The crust is baked to perfection and everything about this beauty is homemade with the best ingredients.

Of course, the pizza here is amazing. The homemade sauce is made with plum tomatoes, so it's just the right amount sweet - never bitter. The crust is crispy, but with a nice chew. And the toppings are high-quality and plentiful.
