"Pizzaiolo Anthony Mangieri made his long-awaited return to NYC in 2018 — he had a tiny East Village pizzeria for five years before spending a decade in San Francisco — setting up shop on the Lower East Side with Jeremiah Stone and Fabian von Hauske Valtierra of Contra and Wildair. In its newest incarnation, there are five pizzas on offer, each $25 pie sporting a properly pillowy, blistered crust, soupy middle, and stellar ingredients. An equally tight edit of appetizers and desserts, like scallop crudo and ethereal tiramisu, come courtesy of Stone and Von Hauske Valtierra, respectively. Natural wines round it all out." - Alexandra Ilyashov
