Antico Forno Urbani

Centro Storico


This Ghetto kosher bakery makes some of the best pizza al taglio (sliced pizza) in town. It can get extremely busy, but once you catch a whiff of the yeasty smell it's impossible to resist a quick stop. Everything's good, including its fabulous pizza con patate (pizza topped with thin slices of potato).
