Crème Brulee: also known as burnt cream or Trinity cream is a decadent dessert consisting of a rich, velvety custard base topped with a layer of hardened caramelized sugar to add the desired crunch and the perfect amount of sweetness. It's normally served slightly chilled; the heat from the caramelizing process tends to warm the top of the custard, while leaving the center cool. I know you want to dive into this tin of deliciousness I head first. Limited quantities per day, so order fast!! They won't last!! :)

What customers say?

“ By far the best pizza in Petaluma, both regular crust and deep dish. I was amazed to find a place that can cook deep dish pizza identical to my favorite pizzeria in Chicago. Also, the monthly special pizzas are a great way to try unusual toppings you've never had before ”

“ Me and my husband were out at Dillion beach, and on our way home (we live in the valley) we wanted some pizza so I googled pizza…and here we ended up! This place was delicious, the crust had so much flavor which blew us away. The sauce wasn’t too salty, lots of flavor and same for the meat! We got meatballs on the house, and we ordered their breadsticks. The owner made the ordering experience personable and checked on us multiple times, that was so refreshing and left s lasting impression on us. I would drive over an hour just to go eat there again, that’s for sure! ”

- Brittney -

“ A decent pizza place, we visited here on a Sunday evening and the place wasn’t busy at all. We ordered the Syracuse pizza and the size was good, apt for a medium pizza. The roasted garlic and red pepper toppings were great too. However the chicken on the pizza just seemed boiled and tasteless. We were expecting some spice or taste in the chicken. The cannolis tasted scrumptious, we liked that they weren’t too sweet. The service was prompt and polite with the staff checking in on us throughout our time here. They’ve parking outside as well. I’ll be back here to try the other pizzas. Overall a decent family run place that dishes out good pizzas and other Italian items. ”

“ Great Pizza. Ordered the Deep-dish Chicago with Sausage. Incredibly fresh local ingredients. Full of flavor and worth the stop. The staff is friendly and dedicated to making the best pizza I have ever had. This is more than pizza but a culinary master piece! We should have taken pictures before devouring our first piece. ”

- Timothy Hudson -

“ The past two orders I've had have been great I absolutely loved the Luciano It was so flavorful and you can just tell that the marinara sauce is in housemade and it's so delicious. The cannolis are so delicious I really like that they aren't too sweet and the walnuts and dark chocolate really compliment the filling. The creme brulee is so divine I was craving it for days and I had to order it again I'm so pleased with my orders. I'm so excited to try more in the future ”

“ We decided to eat here after we saw a few highly rated yelp reviews and oh my they didn't disappoint! All my cheesey dreams came true! The tomatoes sauce on top was perfectly balanced! Don't forget to add roasted garlic! The hunky Sicilian man herd my cry when I realized I could have added some to my pizza and added it anyway definitely a must! Do yourself a favor and eat here for dinner ”

“ My first visit and I will return. The tomato sauce tastes like fresh tomatoes. Ask for fresh roasted garlic on your pizza. And the cannoli is wonderful! Not gritty or too sweet and grated chocolate not mini chips. Owner and wife are so kind and friendly. A neighborhood Gem! ”

- Cynthia Valenzuela -

“ I ordered the mad Sicilian for dinner. A half and half Sicilian pizza, bread sticks and the rhubarb cannolis. I actually ordered the tiramisu but they were out of stock so they called to let me know and asked what I would prefer to replace with. Very quick with only a 30 minute wait for delivery. Pizza was fluffy and crunchy. Sauce was good. I felt it was missing a little zest or that little oomph. But none the less it was good! I will be ordering again! ”
