There are a couple unpleasant things about 2 Amys, it must be said. They don’t take reservations, and it is often overrun with unruly children. But foodies can be parents too, and some things are worth waiting for. So suck it up, cause the pizzas that come out of this restaurant’s brick, wood-burning ovens are simply out of this world (metaphorically)… and from Naples (literally). 2 Amys serves “authentic” Neapolitan pizza—thin, puffy, light, fresh—that has been approved by the Verace Pizza Napoletana Association, the Italian organization that protects and promotes traditional Neapolitan pizza. And while you can’t miss out on 2 Amys’ “pizzes,” the rest of the menu—which includes a fine selection of salads, cheeses, and desserts—is worth sampling as well.
