New York Roma Pizza

When you want a small slice of the Big Apple, check out New York Roma Pizza. The late-night hangout offers a wide variety of pizzas that please all types of palates. Inside there's an intimate counter that seats about six, but there is plenty of outdoor seating as well. The guys behind the counter seem happy to be there, which might make you a little happier too. Pizzas ($10 to $22) can come loaded with common meat toppings such as sausage, pepperoni, or ground beef or chock-full of vegetable toppings such as mushrooms, onions and black olives. Slices ($4 to $4.50) are topped with combinations such as barbecued chicken and tomato, basil, and ricotta. Garlic rolls are so fresh you can distinctively taste the garlic and herbs. The eatery offers also sandwiches ($5.99), calzones ($5.50), and Stromboli ($5.50), but as Ray behind the counter says, "People come here for the pizza." And have a draft beer so cold it rivals those of surrounding bars -- perfect on a hot Miami night.
