Pizzeria Vesuvius

Loved everything about it! Just off the Edgewood streetcar stop, this funky and friendly place has lots to recommend it. Great attentive, yet laid back service, a comfortable and inviting brick walled décor, interesting beer and wine choices and excellent food. Pizza was delicious! Each ingredient on our Cajun pizza could stand on its own, Crisp peppers, delicious blackened chicken and a perfect sauce made it one of the best pizzas I've had. The "secret" bar is just icing on the cake. Hand crafted cocktails and an interesting mix of events make it a great after dinner experience.

This quirky little pizza restaurant cooks up amazing pizza pies. We had the delicious Mediterranean pizza. Perfectly scorched, the pizza had a nice combination of flavors that pleased. We also had an amazing mushroom and goat cheese pizza that was quite tasty (if you like mushrooms). The helpful, friendly and attentive server was a highlight of our visit. You must check this place out!

Vesuvius is the darkest, sexiest, most unassuming hideout pizza spot in the city. They are the sole reason why I fell in love with mushroom truffle pizza! Of course, everyone knows about the "speakeasy" behind the bookshelf but I have also found that when you give the mixologists free reign, they develop some of the most complex drinks you've ever had! It's too dark to read the drink menu anyway, so just trust their judgment.
