"The eight-course omakase is great. Try the hamachi belly or sweet-salty enoki bacon."

"A great reason to visit downtown St. Charles."

"A custom-built, oak-stoked oven kicks out bubbling Neapolitan beauties with a perfect char in two minutes. Toppings run the gamut from fennel-flecked sausage to bitter rapini to prosciutto ribbons."

"The crispy pies hold a lot of weight, so after you choose your pizza—red, white or New Haven plain—start piling on the toppings. (If you’re really going New Haven–style, try one with clams and bacon.)"

"The best-selling slice is the mac and cheese, made with a crème-fraîche base, macaroni and housemade sauce. Specialties include the BBFAT (black bean spread topped with feta, avocado and tomato)"

"In a city known for deep-dish, this hideaway is churning out tasty slices of super-thin, cheese-heavy goliaths to the hungry masses craving a taste of NYC."
