Lupa focuses on Roman-style pizza, which uses slowly fermented dough for an extra light base and extreme tastiness. The keep the menu simple, with five white pizzas and five red to choose from.

Corbett & Claude serve up wood-fired pizzas baked to perfection. Wash it all down with the craft beers, wines and signature cocktails. There’s plenty of choice on the menu, but make sure at least one person at your table orders their amazing Cigar Pizza. It’s a rolled-up, cheesy treat.
