Daniel: True Napolitan protocol. Thin crust, fresh oregano (from a cute branch), fresh mozzarella. Excellent value
Alessandro Bressan: Great pizza!
Jenna Rose Robbins: Ask them to cut the pizza when it's halfway baked, then let it finish baking. This will keep the center from getting soggy -- a well-known affliction to pizzas of all types, not just 800 Degrees'.
