So my wife and I stopped by Alphonso's to grab a slice for Instagram, nothing crazy, just doing our thing. Let me tell you something we were not prepared.
I went with the spicy pepperoni slice first.
Perfect fold crispy but not dry, that pepperoni got a little heat, cups up nice, grease doing exactly what grease is supposed to do. Sauce had flavor, not sweet, not flat. Dough? Old-school. You can taste the work.
Then we said screw it and ordered a full round pie with spicy pepperoni. Big mistake... because now I'm mad this place isn't closer to home.
This is one of those spots you almost don't wanna talk about. A real hidden gem. I was in New York City for business and stumbled into something special. No gimmicks. No nonsense. Just damn good pizza made the right way.
One bite? Everybody knows the rules.
