Tasty and I guess the best thin-crust pizza in Philly, but WAY OVERRATED, if you've had real Neopolitan thin crust in NYC (take your pick) or DC (Two Amy's). Not sure why you have to call in advance. Arrived on time and still had to wait an hour after we were seated for our pie, even with the GIANT oven and open tables. They use mozzarella slices, not chunks; crust is too crunchy, not delicate like the best thin-crust. Not worth a 2nd trip.

Let me start by saying I am not a fan of thin crust pizza, but this was actually pretty good! I was impressed with the flavor of the ingredients. The sausage, spinach, pepperoni and gravy (sauce) tasted fresh and flavorful. I may never like the thin crust but will happily join my friends again at Tacconelli's. BTW, I read a few reviews of waiting and poor service well not last night. The waitress was attentive, pleasant and had good timing.

Still good, but not nearly as good as the original.

Not as good as the Philly location, but no need to reserve your doughs in advance. And they have salads on the menu. Good substitute when you haven't planned in advance.
