On the Grid : Varuni Napoli

"You can’t get any better than Varuni pizza - fresh ingredients, cooked in huge authentic Italian ovens, and promptly served by incredibly friendly staff. The pizza is thin, wood-fired, and their peppers are SO DELICIOUSLY SPICY. The atmosphere is a great mix of casual and classy with a bustling yet open dining area, plenty of seating, a lovely outdoor space, and ample parking. They do an amazing job of making you feel like you're somewhere other than a shopping center. You can see everything being made in the open kitchen and the cleanliness is impressive given the number of things going on. The patio is like a little oasis of its own, with couches and tables. It's rare to find a place where you can dress and pay like a casual restaurant but you feel like you are getting high quality food and experience. In addition, the owner (Luca) is incredibly amiable and often makes time to get to know his customers." - Dear Elouise
