Lorenzo's, East End

What people say, in short
Lorenzo's on Pape draws recommendations for New York-style pizza, with diners praising the crust and foldable slices. One fan particularly recommends the nduja, sausage and fig pie. There is practical dissent as well as praise: a visitor reports repeated sellouts, and another cautions against travelling without knowing that risk. A different diner finds it merely okay and breadier than a New York slice. Past ordering reports should not be treated as a current availability guarantee.
