Don’t let the confusing South Street address (it’s just north on 9th) or the relatively plain-jane look of the place throw you. Little Italy is a top-notch pizza joint. The sweet and sharp sauce is a standout, and the crisp-but-chewy crust scores big where so many others fail so miserably. A host of slices are offered, but our favorite is still the simple and satisfying margherita, which stands as an ideal example of why this pie became the standard by which so many are judged.
