Delicious best-in-class crust, and that's the heart of my five star rating. I'd say equal to or better than Pizzana in Brentwood. Toppings are excellent, sweet tomatoes, generous cheeses are full of flavor and not oily or gross. The funghi pizza is out of this world, subtle black pepper and flavorful crimini mushrooms. The fried pizza dough puff ball (Fritti Alla Scarpetta) that's torn into little shoes of bread (Scarpetta) used to soak up tomato sauce and parmesan cheese is unique and fabulous. Desserts are outrageously good too, if you can believe it. The butterscotch budino is heavenly -- shareable, too. Friendly service. Street parking. Crowded but not too noisy. Note, this place is expensive, $20-30 per pizza, $14 desserts.
