Insider tip
Bring your own container, reviewers mention the restaurant actively encourages it to cut down on plastic trays, and it's a small move that earns you goodwill from the staff. Go early or call ahead; with only a handful of reviews and a tight local following, it can sell out of popular fillings.
The area
Palermo is the most restaurant-dense neighbourhood in the city, Palermo Soho and Hollywood have a place on every block worth considering, and a few that are worth crossing the city for.
