Once upon a time there was a downtown Trenton tomato pie place that served pie and only pie...they have a newer location but Susan,David and Susan's mom took us on the search for the holy grail. Yes pizza but pizza that doesn't flop but snaps and crackles (no pop..or flop). And here tomatoes are not diluted . They do not play second banana to the cheese. Here they lead and star and give meaning to the pies. Oh and something else ..the menu has expanded to include salads with things like blood oranges and one with walnuts and mozzarella with a creamy center. The pie toppings we tried were artichokes and olives but there are more choices. BYOB.The vibe is family and youthful and considerate...There was a 45 minute wait but there was a grocer nearby at which you could shop while waiting and heck there was a three hour wait at Biaca's and this trip didn't involve airports or luggage checking. I am getting to an age where there are fewer new things. But here we found a new pizza with good friends of long standing.
