Margherita at Giuseppina’s
Pizzaiolo Chris Iacono—brother to Lucali owner Mark—does the family’s legacy right with these finely wrought specimens. Supple pies, blistered in a hand-built, wood-fired oven, are adorned with a slick of tangy tomato sauce, Lioni Latticini’s creamy Buffalo and low-moisture mozzarellas, a sprinkling of Parmesan and freshly torn basil.
It's pricey at $20, but from what I've heard, it's worth it.
