According to common belief, Pepe's is believed to be the first real "pizza place" in the world; granted pizza has been around for alot longer than a few decades, but Pepe's is attributed with being the first to lay down tomato sauce (rather than just sliced tomatoes) and plenty of shredded mozzarella. It's worth a try if you're in town, but it's not within walking distance of city center. Given its reputation, one would think that it's more of an upscale place; quite the contrary! It's very "diner-like" in its inner appearance. Ordering is similar, and the pizzas come on large cookie trays. The pizza is quite greasy, so be prepared. Prices are high for what you get, and be prepared to wait in line, especially on the weekends!
