It's on rte #9 heading north towards Snohomish, on your right. LIttle tiny sign on the place, you might miss it, but just turn around and go back.
Thin, crispy crust with juicy high-end stuff on it. Just right. You eat the whole thing and you're full but not bloated. You can almost feel the cold Atlantic Ocean behind you and the NY skyline out there.
If you're not yet familiar with NY pizza-makers, think mad-scientists! They are so into their recipes they will go to any lengths to get it "right". They don't have any interest in marketing or public relations. This can seem like they hate you, but that's not true. Their whole idea is how good can a human being make a pizza? Is it as good as their Father's? What about the old country, is it that good? What about all the pizza in NY, the world, are we that good? Why not? You get the idea. That is for YOUR benefit. Great pizza like this is for your stomach, not your social status..so sit tight, it's coming.
Tony's from the old country, Palermo, Sicily and a nicer guy you could never meet. Relita, his wife, is a sweet lady who loves animals and is concerned about the wilderness disappearing. Tony had a lot of cleaning up after the flood at home, but Relita begged him on the phone to come in and make Cannoli's people would be wanting them. In a few minutes he showed up! They care. A lot.
Together, they have made something available far from its home. It may look just like pizza, but you try it and see what you think.
