    We made a reservation for happy hour. We were greeted warmly and seated right away. The pizzas were the best we’ve had and the service was great. We were full afterward and it was just right for dinner.

    This was our 1st time here, wonderful experience. We are staying in HH for a month, and I decided to bring home a frozen eggplant parmigiana for a future dinner while here. We will definitely be back!
