I remember this spot from nearly a decade ago bursting on the scene with the modern urban vibes and unique, authentic pizza. I was really, really hoping it still held up after all these years and am happy to report: it's fantastic!
We took our girls here recently on a little KC exploration day; parents, you know the drill. Streetcar. Union Station. Lunch. Avoiding naps. Maybe some ice cream.
When we walked in, it was silent, empty, and the guy bussing tables/running host seemed a bit stressed. Weary after several downhill experiences post-Covid, I started thinking this spot might've lost it's fastball. Turns out, everyone was just out on their side patio enjoying the beautiful day, and that's where we went as well to soak up the sun and the energy.
We got some basics that tasted anything but basic; a margherita D.O.C. pizza (San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella di bufala, basil, extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt) and a bianca white pizza (mozzarella, extra-virgin olive oil, garlic, basil, sea salt).
Folks, this was the good stuff. The garlic popped from the white pizza and brought so much flavor. The kids were blown away by the bubbly, salty crust. It is truly one of those pizzas that you don't need to bog down with ingredients ... a real "less is more" situation.
Already can't wait to go back, and honestly wish they'd expand a bit further south so we could go here more often.
