Wonderful Neapolitan thin crust pizza. They provide scissors to cut your own slice. It's a 20 min or so drive from Cary but if you're going to experience Durham, it's right up the street from DPAC and it's a wonderful, gourmet, whimsical pizza joint. Sunday nights they have family style where you sit at a table with other guests and they serve you all their new exploratory creations before they introduce to gen pop. Beta testing for pizza. Highly recommend. Art work on pizza boxes on the walls.
