Lorenzo’s Pizzeria

The slice I had there is not your typical pizza. They add sausage to their marinara sauce. Although I like regular NY style pizza this was tasty. I always add crushed red pepper, black pepper, Garlic powder, and Oregano to the top.

On the Edge – I would not recommend this spot. The food was so so and the service was HORRIBLE!!! The waitresses are miserable there.
