My daughter and I needed a "snack" to hold us over until our late lunch reservations. Something quick and easy...and tasty!
While in Nola you will see pizza slices sold at all the spots with the frozen drinks, etc. This spot is a mama/pop shop and doesn't look like much walking up and in, but in my experience that's a good sign! I saw the pepperoni pizza and wasn't impressed with the small, easily counted pieces of pepperoni, but we were hungry...not greedy. ;)
Glad we went with these slices! They warmed the slices in the pizza oven. The crust was perfect, a bit thicker on the bottom somewhat which was -- PERFECT. The sauce/cheese ratio paired perfect with the pepperoni which tasted real fresh. It was super easy to walk and eat the slice. It wasn't greasy. Not runny. And the thickness of the crust allowed it to keep its shape. It wasn't floppy, which I think was great.
As we walked and munched, a guy stopped and said..."I need to know where you got THAT!" It was the perfect size and the price was right. AND -- they didn't charge an additional service fee for me using my debit card! Imagine that, a LEGIT SMALL BUSINESS not passing their cost to do business to the customer. Much respect!
Check this place out! My only regret is not ordering a whole pie.

The pizza and cheese sticks are delicious! I really liked the dough specifically. It was both crispy and soft and not to thick or too thin; just perfect. There was a variety of toppings and I really liked that there was so many halal options. I would highly recommend this place. It is definitely a go-to spot when visiting New Orleans.

I loved the meatball sub, calzone and their buffalo wings. I went with a group and everyone else enjoyed their food as well. The people are very friendly!

Good, does the job. The restaurant itself is a bit dated but the food is good. It was very slow when i was there.

Today I deviated from the norm went out on a limb and ordered the chicken salad something I normally wouldn’t do from a pizza spot. It did not disappoint! Fresh cut when you order the salad taste like each vegetable was pulled straight from the garden, crisp and juicy does not do justice to the quality experienced. I definitely have a new favorite from this spot! Sorry no pictures it was just that good I demolished it, lol.
